Other than the Spanish-American War, I can’t think of another war that was executed flawlessly and reasserted dominance than the 1982 Falkland Islands War.

After they surrendered, I was pulled up next to a car flying an Argentine flag. I popped in my tape of Rule Britannia and played it as loud as I dared.

Had the Argies taken the safeties off their bombs it may have turned out differently.

Brezhnev took Afghanistan
Begin took Beirut
Galtieri took the Union Jack
and Maggie over lunch one day
took a cruiser with all hands
apparently to make him give it back

Yes, apparently Roger Waters didn’t approve. But I say, “Good Show, Maggie!”
