Subject: UK's vassal status re-affirmed?
mithradates    4/8/2007 12:56:16 PM
In this latest prisoner incident, the actual power of the U.K has clearly been demonstrated. Though the entire affair was instigated by the U.K army, it is now obvious to all that the U.K is entirely dependent upon the U.S for it's security. Without U.S military backup, the U.K cannot even attempt to deal on a basis of equality with Iran let alone superiority. Iran was able to extract written confessions and apologies from the 15 tresspassers of their guilt and then was gracious enough to pardon these criminals. While the U.K put these soldiers on TV and had them whine about mistreatment, and how much they wanted to preserve their own lives. Is there now any doubt that the U.K is but a vassal of the U.S?

"Finally, yes, we are British. We can build our own damn carriers, Sir."
 
It was the British who invented the modern aircraft carrier.  The first modern, proper aircraft carrier was the Royal Navy's HMS Ark Royal launched in 1915 and notably fought for the British Empire against the Ottoman Empire in that war.
