The man who started the Falkland War
2012


30 years ago almost to the date, on the 19th of March 1982, the Argentinean Scrap Merchant Constantino Davidoff landed a commercial expedition on the island of South Georgia in the South Pacific. This landing was to be the kick-off of the Falkland War.

1000 men died in that war. The war consolidated Margaret Thatcher’s position as PM in the UK; was the beginning of the end for Argentinean Junta; and it ruined Constantino Davidoff’s life.

For even now, 30 years later, the now 68-year-old Constantino Davidoff is plotting his revenge. Those days in March 30 years ago have marked him for life. Only the thought of revenge keeps the old man going.

The story narrates the story of Mr. Davidoff: of his rise to fame and money and his sudden fall in the aftermath of the Falkland War. It also discusses Mr. Davidoff’s role in the lead-up to the war: Was he, in fact, as innocent as he claims? Was he used by powers bigger than himself as the key factor in inciting the War? If so, by whom?
