Mimaw,no,the average Brit is NOT anti-american, in fact it tis the opposite.
Do not be fooled by the sizeable group that does espouse such feeling.It is simply that they are heard loudest because they take any chance to be heard,so they give a skewed picture of what 60 millions Britons feel.
And the average British public has a great affection for the armed forces.No, the average British public certainly does not disrespect/hate the military.Again,the minority get heard more than they should.
Hope your nephew and his unit is ok,btw.
I must admit to a tiny snicker of laughter myself. Tried to contain myself, as I know it is tasteless, but it slipped out in spite of myself. Slapping my face as punishment.....
Agreed. At the height of our outrage recently at the "Anti-Christian" message promoted by the movie "The Golden Compass", we gathered together, and in a fit of anger, decided not to go out and see a movie and perhaps watch a DVD or play dominoes instead.
Draw your own conclusions. : )
Thank you and please except my apologizes. Your right it’s pretty much the same in this country, a campaign by the press to enforce their left wing ideology.
