jOhn, you are careening and stumbling around where Angels fear to rollerskate. :-)

Why do you always spell like you've just downed a couple of gallons of vodka?

I would retort that the Falklands War was in fact, religious, like all wars...only it wasn't tied to a traditional church religion. It was tied to slightly more subtle forms of religion. In the case of that one it worked this way:

Argentina:

1. was religious about the notion of its national territory and sovereignty over that and considered the islands to be part of said national territory.
2. And their flag...! (grin)
3. And the generals were religious about staying in power, and hoped to distract the public in Argentina with a foreign foe, and
4. gain a victory, thus guaranteeing popularity.

Didn't work out for them, though, did it?

Great Britain:

1. Was likewise religious about the notion of their national territory, yadda, yadda
2. and their bloody flag as well! (double grin)
3. and Maggie Thatcher was religious about staying in power, and hoped to distract the public in the UK with a foreign foe, etc..
4. and gain a victory, etc..

And it worked out for Maggie!

Now there are some great religious underpinnings for the Falklands War, only just not CHURCH-based religion, that's all.

Now sober up and get serious, mate! :-)
