Let's Start a War, or Let's Start a War...(Said Maggie One Day), is an album by the punk rock band The Exploited, released in 1983 through Combat Records. The title refers to Margaret Thatcher's decision to go to war over the Falkland Islands in 1982, suggesting that she did so almost on a whim. The controversial war was fodder for many protest songs in the punk movement.
