Odd thing to be upset about, to be honest. The falklands war was the best thing that happened to that country during those years. If it hadn't been for Thatcher's war mongering they would have gone to war with Chile instead and the Junta wouldn't have collapsed so quickly.

He has spent a very lot of time in Havana, I dare say that is behind his Bush views.

Weird documentary that. It looked like it statrted in 2006 and ended in 2008, so just covered the latter part of his rehab period and missed his rise to national manager. He's obviously anti-Imperialist in his views - such as they are - but you got the feeling he's been a useful publicity tool for Castro and Chavez rather than anyone taken seriously on the subject.

Cracking footage of his genius, though.
