    No war without the false grievance and the Malvinas myth.

    I'm an unashamed British patriot in certain hopefully intelligent circumstances; and the Falklands War was necessary for many;unfortunate, but enforceable for democratic reasons, but this production of a memorial coin seems quite mercenary and inappropriate; like a tombstone for memory.

    An Anglo Turnipette wrote in here the other day...:
    《“What a pity the Argentine veterans are still being exploited by their politicians to this day.”》

    I answered...:
    And the Engrish (et al.) veterans ain't still being exploited by their politicians to this day...? Geeeeeee.... this bird surely deserves to win this year “Red Poppy” award...

    Well... here's your opportunity to buy yourselves the “Red Poppy” award..., Anglo Turnips... For meager £47.96.-
