#3 40 billion dollars worth of resources the UK is going to lose because they can't afford a 4 million dollar anti-missile loadout on their 200 million dollar frigate.

Where are they going to get the money for their chavs again?

#6 Falklands oil strike to infuriate Argentina

Infuriate? I'm thinking energize. The best kind of war is one that pays for itself. Count on Kirchner to devote major resources towards taking the Falklands. British war planners had better start thinking about logistics for a Falklands campaign. Because Argentina Land Grab 2 is coming.

#7 Iff FDR can give the Brits 50 overage US destroyers during WW2 at no cost, then in 2011 POTUS Bammer can certainly give the Brits any or all of those NUCLEAR AIRCRAFT CARRIERS PROPOSED FOR ELIMINATION/CUT FROM THE USDOD BUDGET.

ME > Better to see 'em given to US Allies than to see them sunk as artificial reefs.
