Invading a small island owned by one of your biggest trading partners isn't a smart move, even if you manage to hold onto it.

Neither is trying to evict people from land you weren't using ~~and never have~~, at all. The Falklands were settled by the French, then the English, for 56 years before Argentina tried to assert sovereignty, and they were unoccupied when Europeans arrived.

Might as well legitimize Israeli "ancestral claims".
