Actually during the Falklands War America was technically neutral.

It was irksome as Brits to watch Jeanne Fitzpatrick try to be even handed at the UN.

Secretly though, the US was helping the UK.

The French allegedly helped the Brits, too. Reports that they told the RN how to spoof the French-built Exocet missile.
