in an attempt to respond to this, margaret thatcher gives a speech trying to get the support of the british population for this war
"For the first time in many years, British sovereign territory has been invaded, has been invaded by a foreign power. After several days of risings tensions, in our relations with Argentina, that countries armed forces attacked the Falkland islands yesterday, and established military control of the island. The governor of the island said that when he left the island, the people were in tears, the do not want to be Argentine, he said the islanders are still, tremendously loyal. I must say, that I have every confidence in the governor, and the action he took. I must tell the house, that the Falkland islands, and their dependencies, remain British territory. No aggression and no invasion can altar that simple fact. it is the governments objective to see that the islands are free from occupation, and are returned to British administration, in the earliest possible moment."
