Watching Cameron doing his "my special friend Obama" act last week turned my stomach. If anyone didn't read the wikileaks US Embassy cables about William Hague's sycophantic pleading for the US to be our specialist bestest friend in the whole big wide world a year or so ago I reccomend they do. When will British politicians realise that we do not have a "Special Relationship" with America. We support them in their diplomatic spats and in their wars - even when as in the invasion of Iraq they are evil, agressive wars based on lies and deeply unpopular with the British people, in return they...um...give us lookwarm diplomatic support (Falklands), stab us in the back (Suez) and (after the Second World War) manipulate affairs to cripple our economy. Its not that they don't like us its just that the US of A acts in its own interests - emphatically not in ours unless they happen to coincide. We need to grow up and get over it, the fact is they have been seeing someone behind our back. There is a country with which they have a Special Relationship but its not us and it never was it's ISRAEL....and if that doesn't scare the shit out of you it damn well should.
