National Geographic shows their Anglo Bias by referring to the sinking of the HMS Coventry by gallant Argentine pilots as a "tragedy", whilst simultaneously using no such term for the downing of a Argentine jet by the self same Coventry in the same battle!
The Argentine pilots were going up against the latest technology: two different types of sea to air guided missiles on the two British warships. The Argentine pilots had only manually released bombs! And they still sank the Coventry! Surely one of the finest moments in Argentine military history - certainly not a "tragedy". Of course to those that lost their lives it is a tragedy, but to call the British loss only as a tragedy demeans the loss of life sustained by the Argentines.
