Ok, I stopped reading when the author said this:
"The signs have been there all along. In the Falklands War, the Argentine Air Force, which ain't exactly the A Team, managed to shred the British fleet, coming in low and fast to launch the Exocets. And they did all this hundreds of miles off their coast, with no land-based systems to help."
What the hell?
Agentina sank 3 British ships and shot down one British plane.
Britain sank 3 Argentine ships, and shot down literally dozens of planes, and killed hundreds more men.
Also, of course the Argentine didn't have land based systems to help....
THEY WERE USING AN AIRFORCE.
The first British ship was sunk by fighters scrambled when the Argentine radar air-craft spotted the forward part of the British battle group.
The other two ships were sunk in a similar manner.
It's not like they just hopped-up in bi-planes and scored!
