Probably to do with the various wars and George W Bush in particular. Not to mention the issue of the NSA, along with GCHQ over here spying on its own citizens and those of our allies.
Apparently the US Military has blocked access to www.guardian.co.uk so the troops aren't aware of what's going on. So much for freedom of speech eh? :wink:
Much as I love the US your politicians have a lot to answer for from a UK perspective. Mind you, ours aren't any better. I had such high hopes when Obama was elected. As The Who said - "Meet the new Boss, same as the old Boss, we won't get fooled again." :)
Where on earth are you getting this information?!?!?!?
The US military does not block websites, that is something a communist country dabbles in and last time I checked? We are not a communist country.
This thread...wow.
For the record, I am a disabled AMERICAN military vet and my husband is a high ranking military officer. I'm still stunned at this incredible bit of misinformation.
Well it has been reported through a number of highly reputable media outlets here in the UK. And the Germans are furious that the NSA has been gathering data without permission from German citizens. Oh, and European Union representatives have had their fax machines bugged, again by US Security Services. No one from the US government is denying any of this BTW. All in all it's no way to treat your friends. Obama is either not the man he seems to be or he is weak and security officials are walking all over him, metaphorically. No right thinking person in Europe trusts the US Government right now. Love the people, loathe the Government, I'm afraid
Believe what you want from sensationalist news sources, however, I'm telling you as a member of the military and the spouse of the member of the military. These sites are not blocked!
Now...talk to me about Facebook lol.
I'm not going to discuss this anymore other than to say that it is not true.
