    The fact that Israel is committing a genocide and razing Gaza as the world watches mostly unmoved destroys your last sentence. The world doesnt care at all. This has nothing to do with sovereignty or administration or even colonialism. This is just about money (for england) and distracting people from the fact that Argentina’s economy is collapsing (again, money).

    This conflict is what happens when the military makes political decisions. Argentina could’ve had the islands for decades if they weren’t so eager to play fascist invader themselves.

        Oh, you meant like stern letters and tons of meetings where the US vetoes everything? Sure there would be some of those. But no one will actually do anything outrageous to stop it.

        Like, a ton of people will still make money out of selling weapons to both sides. And somehow governments will publicly denounce the conflict while also making record profit on war technology, as is tradition with global outrages.

        Lots of tiktok and Instagram posts, surely as well, at least during the first weeks.
