We (the good old USA) have once again proved how well our friend in South America can count on us, I.E. the Falklands' War. Richard I really don't think the Argentines should have counted on us during the Falklands' War. Clearly these people were the aggressors in this action, and I think the US was rather restrained in its actions. -------
