It's amazing how that little island has had such an important roll in the world, isn't it? If I remember correctly, Cuba threatened to engage British troops en route to the Falklands. Britain came back with something akin to "Well - our boys could use some target practice on the way south ..." The Soviets grumbled, America grumbled back - and the Falkland Island War remained between Britain and Argentina.

Mama is a badass in a bar fight. I love Britain nearly as much as I love my own.
