I've always stood on the side of the British in that conflict, though they were trying to negotiate the Islands to the Argentinians to resolve the dispute and open up trade in South America, the Citizens on the Island considered themselves to be British citizens and wanted the protection of the Crown. I don't think we can argue that the Argentine government at the time was foolish in invading the Island and effectively taking on a first world advanced and well trained Military. Once the British mobilized, they had won the war.
