The difference between then and now is that the islands are now well defended. The valid problem of retaking the islands should be sidestepped by not losing them again in tne first place. I do not see the Argie threat as credible. They do not have the economic resources, the military capability or the public will to have another go. The constant noise is annoying but that is all. It is an irritation. Argentina will most likely engage in a perpetual campaign of low level harassment because they know that if they go for Guerra Malvinas Dos they'll have their gaucho arses served to them once again. That would not be a vote winner for Cristina.
