the truth is this special relationship is not between the governments of the nations but the people of the two nations. it is a deep rooted understanding that even if we cuss each other out or disagree with certain policies that deep down there is connection there. i fight with my brothers all the time but at the end of the day i love them. brothers fight but when the shit hits the fan they stick together. now theres times when this does not seem the case but scratch the surface and its clear
Sorry to any Americans who are overly pro-British, but I do not and never have believed in the special relationship. It is utter rubbish. The US is a massive economical superpower, we are a middle-weight power. How can we compare?
We have our own nuclear weapons, our own political system and the Cold War is over, we do not need America anymore.
On our own, we cannot really stand strong in the world, as part of Europe we can stand powerfully in the world.
@123MATTYH i agree, but only you're thinking of the government doing that. the american people on the other hand love great Britain. hell, half the country can't wait to watch prince william and kate get married in april!
@Zukouh 'The English think they rule the world' What a load of rubbish,you talk to an american and all they say is we owned you in the revoloutinary war blah blah blah.But yet they cant understand if it was not for france they would of losed and it the war ended in a peace treaty.
@jadeyes914 yes I know in 1946, but even then he was only trying to gain support to stand against communism. All sides who use this phrase only use it as long as it suits them and their agenda... Surly you must admit that no special relationship really exists?
There is no special relationship and there never was. America only brings up the phrase when it suits them. They do the same to every country Israel, Canada, Australia, India, Brazil...we all just have to look after ourseleves
there is no special relationship and there never was ffs! lmao. America looks after one person, America. Which is fine by me let's just not kid ourselves that there is a 'special' relationship. I mean what the hell is supposed to be so special about it anyway!
I have nothing better to do? Why you replying to these threads then moron. Your the sad bastard with the you tube page...Get an education, get a decent job then we'll talk fuckwit
Can we please end this 'special anglo-american' relationship. It's embarassing. The UK is a significant global player, let's not play ourselves down, it has close relationships with nations outside of the US. Canada, India, Australia, New Zealand etc. Plus the US is in relative decline to China. End it now please....we are a significant player, we dont have to bow down to a declining one
@ib5051 Man your a loser really! You calm to have a big job but yet you have nothing better to do then sit here and write shit and waste your time because nothing is going to happen no matter how much shit comes out!
First of all India values it's new and extensive bilateral ties with the United States as opposed to the old stale one with the Commonwealth. You can call it a new ''Sepcial Relationship''....lol!!
As for Canada, they've integrated into North America being part of NAFTA and the successor military organization of NORAD.
Australia and New Zealand have integrated to the Pacific Rim, in which the United States is a major player.
I thought the "special relationship" was only valid as long as we were paying back those predatory fucks for the arms we bought while fighting a world war they claimed virtual sole credit for winning?
Now that it's paid off, can't we tell these vulgar cunts to ram it and rejoin the human race? I can't think of a single person I know who doesn't resent and despise the United States.
morgot. Absolutely correct. The English have tried to hard to suck up to the US and has knifed all their old friends in the back. The US can keep the Special Relationship with the English. They deserve each other.
@123MATTYH Oh enough with your anti-Americanism.

America doesn't give a shit about being popular (clearly), the two things it wants are MONEY and POWER.
Like you Brits don't want the same fucking thing. The English still think they rule the world for god sakes.

Sure dude, go "rejoin the human race", after you've fucked the rest of the human race for 500 years. They all LOVE you, right?
We don't want to hear a thing from the Brits, the architects of imperialism.
