The americans sponsored more terrorists than anyone else as ever done but terrorism was a nasty thing once it reached the American shores.
Do you lot never wonder why you're so despised all around the world? Have you noticed, nobody ever bombed Switzerland? wonder why. Whineingbloody Yanks.

BTW, I think it's all Spain's fault for exiling the Moors in 1492. It may be ancient history to us, but not the Muslims.

This Robbie guy must be some sort of moron, or at the very least, a troll, well said Manc, I don't think he realises that he's talking to Brits.
Anyway, please folks, lets not go any further with this uneducated, unfounded prattle, this US-hater has prob. never been to the US for more than 2 weeks to see Mickey in Florida...
Oh, and your picture of the boy pissing on the solider...he's not in US uniform...looks more like a Royal Anglican uniform to me, whatever, it's certainly not a US military uniform.
Robbie...and I loved your profile..."left Liverpool to see the world"...glad to see you made it as far as a Spanish gin-house...good going loser, next time, think a lot more and drink a lot less before you post.

Robbie, you're clearly a small minded twat, who has no idea about America and Americans.

Also- regarding GB and it's "handing back" occupied territories, in addition to N. Ireland and Scotland- Spain (Gibraltar), Argentinia (Malvinas), Monserrat, Turks and Caicos, Bermuda, Anguilla aditionally would disagree.
Regarding Spain and their removal of the Moors:
You say that in jest, however on TVE (Spanish National Television) following the 3-11 train attacks that was given as one of the reasons. Don't recall what source- anom. letter claiming responsibility or similar I recall)
