This war mongering moron, Hitchens, is a born liar! Anyone with an IQ in double digits that looks at the facts concerning September 11, 2001, knows 911 was a Mossad, CIA and traitors in Washington job. The terrorist state of Israel is the threat to world peace, NOT Iran. Iran has no weapon systems that could deliver a nuclear war-head beyond the mid-east. While “God’s chosen terrorists” are sitting on hundreds of illegal bombs and have threaten to use them.
@brightblaze1 Care to present those facts? I find most people with this opinion, do not have a real grasp on the difference in a fact and a really strong belief.
how could ANY western statesman not respect Churchill. I really think that Obama revealed a great deal of his personal politics to the world when he returned that bust. Winston Churchill brought the world's attention to the lunacy of Adolf Hitler and his National Socialist party, and I do believe that there is enough evidence to pin the socialist tail on the Obama donkey.
@Zontertes I agree that it does say something about Obama and his worldview when he did that. Churchill was a fine man that led Britain during their finest hour with brains and balls, and ridding the white house of his bust was not necessary regardless of one's ideology. Of course he never really explained why he did it so we have every right to assume he is just a leftist who doesn't want to be reminded of what a real leader is every time he walks by it, so he got rid of it.
@Phelan666 Don't worry, the man hasn't committed treason. Don't lose your temper just because he's made a somewhat snide comment about your failure of a president.
America doesn't "hate" anyone else. Facts are facts, however. Don't come here to study if you keep the huge chip on your shoulder! Stay home. What Obama did to Great Britain was inexcusable and shoddy. Christopher Hitchens got this one totally wrong, sad to say. This WAS a big deal.. a VERY BIG deal. It's really, really sad that Obama is judging G.B. from a personal familial subjective and almost anecdotal animosity. Remember NOV 2010 is coming!

Here's something new for you: I'm an American, who, like many Americans, IS very educated, speaks a foreign language, and conducts myself properly in public (all those stereotypes you like to tell us about when you're in our country).
I have a message for you Eurotrash pieces of dog shit, I don't care what you think about us, how we eat, our food, how we drink, our beer, our women, our "futbol", our space program, or our reruns of Saved by the Bell. We don't live for your approval.
@ScottMacFie, You are obviously trying to impress us by acting like a tough guy and from what I know Educated, well polished citizens who conducts themself properly in public don't talk about how we are "eurotrash peice if dog shit" which by the way doesnt make sense and secondly you saying that you conduct yourself in public brings a thought to mind meaning you do some wierd shit when your on your own!!
@TheMitchy93 : Nope, not at all, just tired of hearing Europeans bitch about us. We don't freakin care what you think. Not the majority of us. Every time I turn around there's some OTHER European visiting the US who can only complain about everything, like you're so much better. Your not, and you can leave whenever you'd like.
@ScottMacFie, Don't you think we get it from Americans. All we get is "America is so big and could destroy you, we have the best everything", we get this all the time from some big headed, ignorant Americans and you could say we have had enough of it. I haven't visited America but would love to and I am looking into maybe studying there but I'm not sure if I want to if all i'm going to get is people like you hating me before they have met me..
I think you (The British) should look at your own history before you go judging others. There's a reason the sun never sets on the British Empire; They're not trusted in the dark.
@t1mel1ne No, it cuz you all were a bunch of war mongers whos piss ass monarchy felt the need to conquer most of the known world for the "good" of the crown. The shit you all bitch about the U.S. is nowhere near as bad as what the British empire foisted on the world in its day. Hell, you were at war most of your history just so people could get out from under the thumb of the crown.
No We (The British) do not call it the special relationship, we think of it as America being the greatest friend GB has and vice versa. I lost alot of respect for Obama and admin also America over this. It is a bit of a slap in the face when PM Brown goes to allot of effort and thought into giving Obama very special and priceless gifts. Also being given back Churchill's bust is a major disrespect in my eyes. We gave America that after 9/11. I am shocked
@SuperColin74 My fault. The question was meant to be put toward Feelslikelightning. However, you might answer. How does Britain go about moving from america and towards the UK?
@SuperColin74 Well I can't speak for europe politically. But as a person.. I think I can speak for quite a big part of europe by saying that most europeans absolutely detest the english. We don't like your country, we don't like your world vision, and we certainly don't your tourists. I think when asked impromptu most european citizens would prefer england stay england and the EU stay the EU. There is a reason there is sea around england, rats can't swim that far:P
@SuperColin74 I think the general feeling here is that UK is just another tiny state that pay off to vote with us in the UN and join our "coalitions of the willing", like another Micronesia. We also feel we are owed that loyalty somewhat from saving their hide in 2 world wars.
To us British people seem confused, perhaps not having picked up a newspaper in 150 years think they are still at the center of a global empire, or worse yet think they are our motherland because we speak English.
@ArchNME America didn't save britain kid. Britain saved its self in the Battle of Britain in 1940..this had nothing to do with America. America didn't join the war intill the japanese bombed Pearl Harbor then germany declaring war on the USA.
I guess Americain think that if they repeat it enough, it will become accepted as fact. But as usual, you arrived late, made a lot of noise but actually did very little.
In ww1 American's were actually debating which side to join. Great allies
@ArchNME But if you wanna keep bringing up the past why don't we take about the War of 1812 when Britain beat America... its so funny how american's forget to mention that.
We're British to our knowledge the rose garden was not reported at all or the bust of Churchill. There was a brief report on the pens and the dvds which by the way cant be watched in this country as the dvds are the wrong region and they're kept in the treasury... I heard american reporting was bad but this is just lies.

Thanks for fuck all Obamarama.
You shit.
Mind you, I wouldn`t piss on Brown either.
He hates the UK armed forces (always has) but Brown wants Obama to suck his dick because Brits are getting killed in A/stan, Brits that Brown does fuck-all to help until forced to by an outraged British public.
Wanker.
Hilary is a cunt, so are these two yapping cunts, nuke fucking Iran.
Bish-bosh, job done.
Politics is a piece of piss, now give me my expenses before I waterboard some beardy-foreigner cunts
Isn't it unusually refreshing to see an interview with Christopher Hitchens where he is not being often interrupted by a rude and obnoxiously loud presenter, who doesn't care about what he says and only cares about the spin.
If you want to watch an interview with Hitchens you should watch his interview with Brian Lamb just last January. Lamb lets him talk for long periods and if you're an interviewer you have to be cautious of people that pause, which is something that Hitchens does. The whole video is on YouTube. Good that we sometimes pay attention to the same things. Cheers!
i was very upset that week. I was looking forwards to Brown going to the US till that happened think Great Britain should stop being so nice to the US.
I hate being nice to American people all the time i should tell them what i think.
it's ridiculous the amount of anger directed toward gordon brown, it's completly unjust.
second point this should give britain the wake up call we need time to stop playing lap dog to this world bully and start standing on our own two feet
I agree fully with your first point. The British press is entirely biased, with possibly the exception of the Guardian and the Independent, but they're not politically aligned. This basically decides public opinion.
Im not sure the US is a world bully anymore, debatable. But yeah, the UK should act more like a country with the 6th biggest economy and the 4th most spent on their military in the world. The US have to realise that the UK could easily align themselves with the EU instead.
you forget that the U.S. spends more on its military than the next 7 world powers combined. they also have a broad missile defense net and haarp.you dont have to like us and you dont have to agree with us, but you do have to respect us.
WOW! your ignorance really shows in this comment,lol. first off fuckleberry, in case your unaware, Bushe's ratings were in the teens dumb shit! meaning most of America was against him and his actions, and even now many are looking for clear evidence to nail his ass. second, add up the wars through out history and compare the ones that America started to the ones we didn't. its about 2 to 20+. pretty fair to say we're more known for ending shit than starting it.
last, but i'm sure not least. tell us all what utopia nation that you live in where there is a perfect government with a long history of peace and decency towards its people and other nations of the world. please tell us where this heaven on earth is! p.s. America handed out several hundred billion in aid last year topping several other world powers combined.how much did you or your nation contribute?
p.s. next time think before you open your dick warmer and cut this nonsense out idiot!
we vote for parties and the head of the party becomes prime minister. he has to hold an election at some point but naturally will wait to hold it when he feels better he can win it...obviously he wont but your points are both flawed.
I'm not thick. I'm just sayin he is holding on to power as long as he can before he has to hold an election. He could of held one whenever he liked. But your right that he wouldn't hold one because the polls sugested he wouldnt win. Ant he was a shit chancellor.
i will NEVER vote labour again all labour do is rob the working man and waste the money :(....im glad you were snubbed gordon when it come time to vote i will snubbed you too :))

I am Welsh.
Listen to the Englishmans comment below. He is Right.
Gordon Brown is a Twat.
Can some terrorist shoot this cunt please. We would all love bin larden if he could sort this out for us in the Unfree Kingdom some still call the U.K
What special relationship? A so called special relationship since WWll when the yanks helped? Come on, a war that was origionally fulled and financed by the USA. Wake up everyone and read some real history.
I'm a Brit and am ashamed the way our leaders have let the UK get butt fucked by the USA and the USA doesnt even say thankyou and then wipes its dick on our curtains.
@rajnicat lol, if we do that, where would we end up? I second Hitch's sentiments about everything, especially the combination of self pity and self love in our press. We should be grateful that America does consider us their number 1 ally. Without them, we would just be another European country. Or we could just pretend that we still have a "stiff upper lip" and fly solo, and keep mocking Americans as we slip into obscurity, pretending we're something more than a chav infested dump.
Would David Carradine have the same reaction as Christopher did when he was being waterboarded?
If you were into auto-erotic asphyxia do you think waterboarding would be some kind of super sex toy? - Just add a vial of emyl nitrate into one nostril before you get gagged up!
Any conservative MPs willing to shed some light on this issue for me?
i think by the "special relationship" they mean the good friendships between the british prime ministers and presidents of america for example thatcher and reagan , blair and clinton, blair and bush and it doesnt look like brown and obama will carry this on
I think Hitchens should have signed to a document to at least 10 seconds, no less. Then one could say one has truely experienced this horrible torture to its true form.
they go on like obama is a superstar not a world leader that brown should feel privelleged to even meet obama even though we are there strongest ally and the british guy on the left acts as though hes american
Well obviously we're not going to war with the UK I just thought the term "special relationship" was about FDR and Churchill. I've heard it mentioned more though and Sarkozy apparently snubbed the British at the D-Day anniversary by not inviting the Queen, I guess to get closer to the US or the President? That's terrible, wouldn't he know that insults all of the allies if it's true? Thanks for the response.
Oh I see. I would assume the majority of Americans and definitely all of Washington considers the UK probably our closest ally. I have to say probably in case some Canadian reads this : )
I was just curious if there was something 'special' we should be doing. Well despite Brown, sorry about the DVD thing. Jesus, I suck at giving gifts and I could come up with something better. Just what someone needs, more American movies!
I wouldn't really call UK Washington's ally. They're more like a bitch who suck the president's cock in exchange for an occasional glimpse of the imperialist glory, which they let slip away a century ago. It's also very handy that the same bitch is a permanent member of the UN security council.
If you're really from Finland, I'm not sure why you're so down on the UK, they're obviously an ally even if the majority of citizens there dislike the United States.
I wouldn't call their imperialist empire glorious either, it was an amazing achievement of arms and organization, but truly despicable.
I agree the UN is in serious need of an overhaul, it's a dated institution that needs serious reforms.
Because UK has gone from being a lion into being a castrated kitten. They should grow some balls and make a stand for themselves, rather than being so submissive before both the Washington overlords and the muslims.
Well I agree up to a point. Some British politicians and possibly the media treat their country like the "51st state" sometimes. They're a sovereign nation and yes I think they shouldn't pander to radical muslims who hate the UK.
That said, I believe Blair was a true believer in overthrowing Saddam.
Afghanistan isn't submission. It's the first invocation of Nato Article 5, that an attack on one is an attack on all. You have to admit the British have been fighting like lions not kittens.
I'm American and I say Obama should have given a respectful gift. American DVDs don't even work in UK DVD players... that was a stupid gift, and I was really embarrassed by the fact that my president did that. In his campaign Obama was depicted as being VERY technology literate... so much for that.
I agree, the Obama gift was crappy. But this is something he can fix pretty easily; I think we should send the British something wonderful. No, I'm not joking; There are no better friends to the US than the British and I as an American do feel we have a special relationship. Allies like the English should be valued in a very high place in our diplomacy.
I guess if you want us to be that careful, you might as well acknowledge that not all Americans are "Yanks"
Men of the South are NOT Yankees, since the term refers only to New Englanders.
But you know what? Best that you do assert your identity. I'm not averse to a bit of education on UK identities. Let the world know who you are! In this coming storm, it may be who you WILL be!
Tme to end this special relationship bollocks. The british are far more cultured and educated as a whole to be continually sucking up to a nation of uncultured, television obsessed, obese morons.
Muslims curently make up less than 3% of the UK population - not much more than the US. But Im sure you americans are too busy practicing your islamaphobia by invading other nations, while at the same time sucking up to other fundamentalist muslim states with terrible human right records, just because they own 15% of your economy and provide you with oil i.e. saudi arabia. 7th century morons? 51% of americans reject the theory evolution and instead believe in adam and eve and noahs ark - LMAO
Americans do not hate Muslims on the whole. We do, however, fear the same crazy loons you fear ... or that you should fear -- the radical murdering bastards who want to rule the world under some militant, tyrannical, brutal Islamofascist regime.
what good it does for the english people to have a bigger % of people that believe in evolution compared to the americans ,when they allow islamic fundamentalist to dictate what can be said or not in newspapers and is considering allow sharia law in england?
Nice strawman arguement - the fact that "fundamentalists" dont dictate the press and Sharia Law was never remotely seriously considered to be implemented, shouldnt deter you from making your arguement. My reference to the evoution, was in response to the absurd suggestion that the UK was run by a minority of dogmatic idiots - a claim more befitting to the US
I'm English, not British. The special relationship means Yanks, especially of the Irish hyphenated variety, denigrating the English and blaming the English for everything. Well they do that when they are are not ridiculing us. Time to end it.
blaming the english for everything? that would imply that we're even important enough to be a tiny red blip on their radar - we are of no significance to those brash american assholes, they're too busy beating off to themselves. it's the sad truth
The only time an Irishman (not a plastic Paddy Yank) stands shoulder to shoulder with American GIs is when he is enlisted in the British army. However, the Paddy Yanks have it taught in American schools that the Irish famine was English genocide. If 9/11 hadn't happened, US tax dollars would still be funding NORAID and the IRA.
Thanks for replying. If only your point was relevant to mine. Or factual. The US tax dollars funded the IRA? What bullshit. The fact that Sinn Fein were banned from america durinng the toubles obviously didnt register
Bullshit eh? Every year Gerry Adams and other Sinn Fein representatives were invited to attend the St Paddy's day crappery. I'm sure there are YouTube movies showing this. Only after 9/11 did Bush stop Adams and cronies going.
What a crock of shit. During the troubles Sinn Fein wouldnt get into alaska. It was only when he commited to the peace process that the USA allowed him in. And the peace treaty was signed in 1998, 3 years before 9/11. And why is 9/11 relevant to adams? Unless you think he has links to islamic extreemists. Google "has gerry lost support in the US" - a bbc link that documents a visit by adams to the US in 2005. He wasnt invited to the whitehouse - but stop pulling made up facts out of your ass.
Of course the IRA has links to islamic terrorists. There was a shipload of arms bought from Gaddafi for one thing that was stopped from entering Ireland. American dollars paid for those weapons and others. The money then went to pay islamic terrorists who bombed the German nightclubs, for example. Far from me pulling facts out of my arse, you have your head stuck up yours.
No the dumb fucks couldn't grow potatos. Why did the Irish not go fishing instead of turning up for shelter at the door of countries they then went on to bomb?
What you just said is rediculous and you obviously dont know what the fuck you are talking about, so im not even going to get in to it, go do some proper research before you start running your mouth, idiot!!
The Irish always need someone to blame.I'm sure the rich irish landlords never had anything to do with the poverty around then.Why do the thick Irish always need someone to blame?Even the big bloody ships they build can't float.
Ok, the only thick one here seems to be you. You actually dont know anything about thie famine so why even comment on it? Why wont you admit the fact that the famine was caused by the British government and their hegemony over Ireland, due to their free market policies, they exported all other resources such as grain when the population could have been fed, when warned about it they just ignored it and said let the market alone thats just one of the reasons. now i wont go into it anymore
opium25, Nicker isn't interested in details and facts, just tidbits to give false substance to the stated bigotry. The same person we see posting such comments on all variety of topics. Different name, different topic...same mindset.
There is no excuse for the obvious snub of not only Prime Minister Brown but Britain itself! These gifts given between countries are mementoes of the COUNTRY. Obama employs people to make sure these gaffs don't happen, but this person has done nothing to help. What a supreme embarrassment!
although president Obama has undoubtable been busy sorting out the mess that he's been left with, i think a little more consideration should have been given to Gordon Brown. Britain has been a loyal ally through a lot of troubled times and has in no way benefitted. Tony Blair's reputation was marred by the decision to go to war with iraq in solidarity with america.
In a time when America is short of friends, it's friendship with the UK should be cherished!
Tom, Contact Richard Weird event tonight in Times Square Went to Virgin Records & chased out by mgmt. It seems Hillary of the cops or Obama is really tying to stop us. Google Richard Branson Al Gore World Peace I handed out not 1000 flyers it was 1200 instead!!!!! Google American Patriot Jeff Fisher Tell everyone about it!!!!! Google Tom Heneghan & Stew Webb also. Tell everyone about that also!!!
President Obama is very busy trying to correct all the mistakes made in the last past eight years from Bush and Cheney. So forgive us Britain, for our president has his hands full now-a-days.
You're right, Jay Leno, 60 Minutes, eternally campaigning, knocking President Bush, pointless "town hall meetings" where he chats with people on YouTube. A lot on his plate, indeed.
Which party and president finally came up with a plan to fix the economy? Even if it's a plan you might disagree with.....atleast it's a plan that doesn't involve doing nothing, which is what republicans have proposed. Guess what? Your side lost.....and I'm loving it!
How many years will it take for the politicians to seek advice from smart people like Hitchens? How many more years will it be, when Hitchens, Dawkins, Harris become regulars on TV? Hitchens is the master of aphoristic delivery. Its time the media gave this man due respect.
Christopher Hitchens is spot on again, I don't think he said anything wrong! The way the British press is going about this makes one feel really sorry for Gordon Brown, but it's true that Obama has much more important things to do than to spoil foreign visitors with pomp and circumstance!
Dear Britain. Often I get very frustrated with Christopher Hitchens, thankfully I know he does not represent the people of the UK. It is because of our very special, unique and strong relationship that I will show respect and just send love.
P.S. Prime Minister Brown's speach in front of our Congress was very moving and inspirational. Thank you for being a friend.
This war mongering moron, Hitchens, is a born liar! Anyone with an IQ in double digits that looks at the facts concerning September 11, 2001, knows 911 was a Mossad, CIA and traitors in Washington job.

We don't like your country, we don't like your world vision, and we certainly don't your tourists. I think when asked impromptu most european citizens would prefer england stay england and the EU stay the EU. There is a reason there is sea around england, rats can't swim that far:P

@SuperColin74 I think the general feeling here is that UK is just another tiny state that pay off to vote with us in the UN and join our "coalitions of the willing", like another Micronesia. We also feel we are owed that loyalty somewhat from saving their hide in 2 world wars.
To us British people seem confused, perhaps not having picked up a newspaper in 150 years think they are still at the center of a global empire, or worse yet think they are our motherland because we speak English.

@ArchNME America didn't save britain kid. Britain saved its self in the Battle of Britain in 1940..this had nothing to do with America. America didn't join the war intill the japanese bombed Pearl Harbor then germany declaring war on the USA.
I guess Americain think that if they repeat it enough, it will become accepted as fact. But as usual, you arrived late, made a lot of noise but actually did very little.
In ww1 American's were actually debating which side to join. Great allies

If you want to watch an interview with Hitchens you should watch his interview with Brian Lamb just last January. Lamb lets him talk for long periods and if you're an interviewer you have to be cautious of people that pause, which is something that Hitchens does. The whole video is on YouTube. Good that we sometimes pay attention to the same things. Cheers!

I agree fully with your first point. The British press is entirely biased, with possibly the exception of the Guardian and the Independent, but they're not politically aligned. This basically decides public opinion.
Im not sure the US is a world bully anymore, debatable. But yeah, the UK should act more like a country with the 6th biggest economy and the 4th most spent on their military in the world. The US have to realise that the UK could easily align themselves with the EU instead.

That's terrible, wouldn't he know that insults all of the allies if it's true? Thanks for the response.
ddbonner 2 years ago 2
The 'special relationship' was something much touted by Tony Blair..
The British media have latched onto it and along with the government they mention it all the time when mentioning America.
I and I believe the rest of the British public are with me in that we know it's bullshit and we couldn't really give a crap about a snub to Brown.
Brown is deeply unpopular, what with being useless and becoming Prime Minister on a constitutional technicality with no election.
WillB85 2 years ago 4
Oh I see. I would assume the majority of Americans and definitely all of Washington considers the UK probably our closest ally. I have to say probably in case some Canadian reads this : )

I wouldn't really call UK Washington's ally. They're more like a bitch who suck the president's cock in exchange for an occasional glimpse of the imperialist glory, which they let slip away a century ago. It's also very handy that the same bitch is a permanent member of the UN security council.

If you're really from Finland, I'm not sure why you're so down on the UK, they're obviously an ally even if the majority of citizens there dislike the United States.
I wouldn't call their imperialist empire glorious either, it was an amazing achievement of arms and organization, but truly despicable.
I agree the UN is in serious need of an overhaul, it's a dated institution that needs serious reforms.

Because UK has gone from being a lion into being a castrated kitten. They should grow some balls and make a stand for themselves, rather than being so submissive before both the Washington overlords and the muslims.

Well I agree up to a point. Some British politicians and possibly the media treat their country like the "51st state" sometimes. They're a sovereign nation and yes I think they shouldn't pander to radical muslims who hate the UK.
That said, I believe Blair was a true believer in overthrowing Saddam.
Afghanistan isn't submission. It's the first invocation of Nato Article 5, that an attack on one is an attack on all. You have to admit the British have been fighting like lions not kittens.

Of course the IRA has links to islamic terrorists. There was a shipload of arms bought from Gaddafi for one thing that was stopped from entering Ireland.
