I'd say the Brits, and Americans would say America. No point in wasting time arguing.
Nah. Neither, both are cocky.
My opinion would be Spetsnaz or Moosad.
Moosad just don't care, they shoot then ask questions, they don't dick around. Spetsnaz have insane training and I've seen some footage of them. SAS and Navy Seals, and really any British or American Special Forces are so goddamn over-rated it's not even funny.
Oh, and let's be honest here, Brits, how many of you have actually been to America? Met an American soldier? Met an American Civilian? Or are you like the majority and just believe what you hear on British news channels? Bias is a bitch. If you haven't quite figured it out, the news, American, British, French, any country's news changes the story and alters it to what they want you to hear.
For instance: Say there are five Marines at a checkpoint, a truck is barreling down the road, the Marines shoot in the air, the truck doesn't stop so they shoot near the truck as warning shots, the truck still doesn't slow down, they don't want to take the chance of dying and there's a possibility that the truck driver is an insurgent, so they shoot at the windows this time. The truck stops, the driver is okay but a little girl in the back seat now has a hole for a head, the news sees it or hears about it and says "Savage Trigger Happy Hicks blow little poor innocent girls head off." You don't hear about why they shot, or the two other times they warned the truck, you just hear about them shooting and killing a little girl. However, if they were to not shoot and sit there, the truck could have blown up and killed all five Marines, then the news story would say "American Military failing because of ill-Experienced young soldiers being sent to the lines." and you would go along with it, like you are NOW, and like you have been for the past 10 years, hey look the news channel says gullible.
Hahaha. The BBC reports it as it is, they're not allowed to be bias by definition. Don't take something that happens in America and apply it to my country.
The UK has impartial news which neither hypes up our army or belittles it, it reports facts. That is why Britain is a realist country, compared to America which is idealist and always portrays America as heroic.
Believe what I hear on British news channels? The majority? Speak for your own country and don't infer things which aren't true just to back up your argument.
(facepalm) This is probably why nobody likes Britain either, you act like your news channels don't lie just because they aren't supposed to. Don't get me wrong! I am fully aware American News is probably the number one cocky and worst news channel to ever set your eyes or ears upon, I am aware that it portrays us as the Kingdom Keepers and such, but just because you think you know your country doesn't mean you do. I highly doubt you have been to America, have you? Saying so much positive things about your own country and acting as if it does nothing wrong shows you are hypnotized by Nazi scientists in Antarctica who were left behind when the others left to go to the moon.
I have a question for you concerning the American government but seeing as how it has nothing to do with this thread, I'll make my own.
You're an idiot man. Britain isn't perfect and I never said it was. Nothing is perfect. However, the BBC is impartial and doesn't lie. Sure it is forced to keep some things quiet because of court orders and things like that, but it never misleads the public in terms of bias or misinformation.
The fact that you went on a tangent about Nazi scientists shows that you don't have any decent points to make. Don't talk crap, it just discredits your argument even further.
Really? Where's your proof that they never lie, that they never mislead the public?
The Nazi Scientist thing was a joke, you're an idiot man.
CNN never lies. No argument.
You're American, I bet you've never even seen the BBC news. You can tell just by listening to the people speak. Their autocues are worded so that they don't give any bias and only say facts.
I'm not arguing with you any more, you're just annoying and dogmatic. I know and so do most others know, that the BBC is impartial. Half of one of my GCSEs was based around that fact.
I googled CNN impartiality and the search results page was littered with slates on it's bias.
The link below shows that despite criticism nearly 4 years ago, the BBC tightened it's policies even further. It has strict rules on impartiality and that is why the public trust it, compared to your CNN. Some Americans and Europeans listen to the BBC news despite being in a different country just to get an unbiased view of what is going on in the world. In America's case, also to hear about news from places other than America.

I've read BBC and trusted them more than any other news station for two years now, if I wanted the legit story I would go there, I was just asking you where your Proof was that it never lied, where your facts were to prove it, and partially cause it was funny that you got mad at me.
Sigh, I was kidding about CNN as well, you just don't get it.
Oh, yeah and I found out about BBC through another American as well, a friend of mine. So...
Fox News never lies. They're the American version of BBC.
I'm not mad, I'm amused and disappointed that I was one of the only people on this forum who wasn't sick of you being a dick to everyone, and now I'm bored of you. You're just a waste of air. I know that Fox News talks out of its arse, don't think you're smart.
