  1. Asking Americans to leave the Ukraine as a way of creating war anxieties, is better than telling Olympic athletes not to compete. Washington did that before.

  2. I see you like to equate Hollywood movies with reality. Some people would say you are a lost soul.

  3. What happened to the American fighter jet that fell off an aircraft carrier? Is China still trying to find it? Military action has been happening for a long time in the Ukraine, and it's been American.

  5.  @petergriffin9902  Why comment about diplomacy when you don't have any?

  6. I'd like to make a bet about how long it will take for someone to recover the boat and put it on display. And in all seriousness and equality about foreign treasures in foreign museums, I hope Egypt gets it first.

  7. The United States still has the most cases per capita.

  9. I've been saying for over a year that in America, with all these flood, tornado, drought and fire tragedies, no-one talks about the insurance or the cost of insurance. I'm not surprised here. Australians are up front.

  10.  @scottbishop7899  Americans are trying to make an electrical hero out of Nikola Tesla, without reminding people it was Guglielmo Marconi who invented wireless transmission, built the first radios, and performed the first over-ocean transmission from Hawaii to America. He was murdered when he was visiting family in Italy and his properties were taken over. Guglielmo is pronounced, "goog-lee-elmo", where those comedic Pentagon guys got Google.

  11.  @ilovebirds4080  Two years ago a wall of ice over thirty feet high was pushed ashore in Fort Erie, moving houses and cottages. High water and wind levels broke up all the docks, stairs and patios along the beach, and washed them up on the backyards of houses, from Point Abino to Fort Erie. But for me, what is worse about getting warmer here is ticks coming up from the states. I'm thinking Maldives right now and that's about snorkeling. I hope everything works out for you.

  12.  @justanotherhappyhumanist8832 : It's good to see a sane and thoughtful reply in the midst of all this social media madness. Here in the Niagara Peninsula, Canada, birds don't fly south for the winter any more and they are eating crops they never ate before. It's half-way through December and I was out last night without a toque or gloves and just a jacket on, not even done up. No snow or ice anywhere.

  14. What an idiotic thing to say. All Asian nations worry far more about Americans coming back and dropping more atom bombs on them. That's the constant threat from the United States.

  15. I'm seeing President Trump as using the mob attack as an excuse to bring in his own military. The Department of Homeland Security was created by that oily Bush bunch to be their own police force, over-riding the F.B.I. and the C.I.A. when the shock of the 9/11 attacks they orchestrated was still being felt by the American public. Sending the rally crowd to the White House where organized insurgents lead the attack was sacrificing pawns.

  16. It looked like a bomb strike to me. Americans have been conducting military operations there for years.

  17.  @masslineedits : You must be a retro weapons enthusiast, not into what foreign people see when they are taking American hits. When I saw the first footage it looked like a drone strike. I said it then and that's why I'm saying it now. Do you know Americans have non-nuclear weapons of nuclear strength? Do you know American stealth helicopters fly at second story level down streets so soldiers with "head-popper" bullets can shoot Lebanese men while they sit with their families at the dinner table? Should I go on, you very rude person? This weaponized mutating virus was created by an American scientist who released it in Wuhan, where he worked, sponsored by Washington. It back-fired, are you happy with that?

  18. If you don't believe in the recent, man-made global warming, you're totally wrong.

  19. Please BBC, don't describe the United States as the most powerful country. It's easy for you to say that, because the United States took over from the British Empire as being the American Empire. But as a Canadian, I can sit here in Niagara Falls and look over the river at a country that has nothing to do with us over here. At a time like this in America you should talk about how British soldiers burned the White House to the ground, during the War of 1812, that the United States lost. America is the only country in the world with a national anthem that's about a military battle, and it's between England and America, and they didn't add a verse about the British and the White House burning down to it. Your government might have thought leaving the European Union and partnering up more with America was a good way to go, but as you watch America self-destruct even your stiff upper lips can't keep the stench from reaching your up-turned noses. Look to Scots for solutions.

  20. I'm seeing this BBC News report as providing the content that American news will continue to use. Being British, speaking with an English accent, provides the credibility that convinces Americans.

  21. Just think, if you didn't have electronic news you wouldn't know this was happening, and you wouldn't be predicting the return of Jesus of Nazareth. I'm sorry He left your world.

  22.  @saltywizard6149 : The worst thing about all these evangelical Christians is the fact they don't understand the Holy Bible and what Jesus of Nazareth said. He never left.

  26.  @mrjonathan1117 : Compared to the United States, Canada is a very under-populated forest. I would sooner live in the remains of the natural world the natives preserved than live anywhere in America or Europe. The accounting for my ancestry goes back over 3,500 years, with another infusion of political refugees two thousand years ago. The British think they are into book-keeping, but they're still trying to imitate us. My Scots ancestors sent natives to university in Scotland so they could properly represent themselves in the British and French courts of pre-Canada. I start talking Gaelic and local Mohawk invite me in, working with natives since 1977. Burritos and re-fried anything!

  29. The United States is also experiencing a human right crisis where over 300 people die every day, and that's because the virus was never contained.

  31. Americans can't "cripple" the Canadian economy. American media can convince Americans about anything they want to convince Americans for, far ahead of the actions they desire to hide. Canada doesn't have problems with immigrants.

  35. This is the BBC reporting this. Now American news can pick up on it and use it to further incite Americans. The English are known for sacrificing their soldiers and members of the public as "cannon fodder". I would also like to ask viewers what a Russian "billionaire" is doing negotiating with Ukrainian "peace negotiators". Is he negotiating or co-operating, as in trying to get his yacht back or account unfrozen?

  36.  @spare1793  There was a Red Barn on the outside of Welland, making their own hamburgers from beef and charging 55 cents for a regular burger. McDonalds built an outlet across the street with Ronald McDonald walking around outside, charging 25 cents for a hamburger that had one slice of dill pickle and the rest was sauce. Red Barn was gone in six months.

  38.  @freddygwynne4176  I have to admit I laughed when I saw condescending, because I thought of these wireless signals coming down from the sky, as in a con is descending. I'm happy to see you say it's a dramatization, not a documentary. Do you know the United States had a contract with Germany to be their supplier for WW2, how Germany was able to take on all of Europe? After Europe bombed itself to the ground Americans went over to take over, and that included taking everything they wanted. Some American historians, as seen by the public, say America might have entered the war a little too late, but that's all you can see now. If there were social media photos and videos back then that truth would be online. The American dream turned out to be a fantasy, and the movies just keep on coming. As far as the "matter at hand", thinking of miles of cars as free food lines in Texas, the American Empire needs a new infusion of foreign wealth and oil.

  39. You know nothing about electricity except the word. Dr. James Watt invented electricity. He changed the word weir to wire after he invented that. You use watts, not teslas. Don't be an American. Get real. Any funding for a concept of public hydro from space won't end up being public hydro from space.
    1
  40.  @scottbishop7899  What kind of belief is that, in an American company? Get real. Do you think the air full of hydro is an atmosphere you want to live in? You don't know what you're talking about. Neither did Tesla. That's why he died a sick and penniless man in a cheap hotel room, when he was a constant White House guest with military protocols invented just for him. You should wonder why you aren't taught the history of Dr. James Watt and other Scottish people.

  42. Americans need to be protected from themselves not only at political events, but in any large public venue. Ben Shapiro is saying "destroyed" when he describes verbal dialogue. That's a military war term. Ben Shapiro is not here for a proper debate, he's just playing this interview to try and discredit this author. Americans are famous for being angry and being haters. Call center employees around the world don't want an account where they accept calls from Americans, seeing them as being abusive and demanding. Ben Shapiro can say something about "Jews", that is a very contentious topic, when he is totally wrong. Here in the Niagara Peninsula there used to be a synagogue in every city, with one out in the country, but now there are none. Low attendance caused that. Ben Shapiro is a religious racist.

  43.  @tigertanks1154  It's not a question of you forgetting or never forgetting. It's not knowing the truth. The United States betrayed their peace treaty with Russian as wanting this war for profit.

  44.  @isaacdalziel5772  You can doubt government statistics but believe talk about Saddam Hussein. You probably think he was really hiding in a hole off the side of a road when he was "found".

  45. I know why British news is used to re-enforce American news, but that's a joke, seeing the founding fathers as being traitors against their British masters. The United States had to copy their society from someone, and that someone was a great slave-trading nation. It took an English slave trader to write "Amazing Grace".

  49. All the money going as funding development of commercial hydro being beamed to earth from outer space, won't result in any electricity reaching our planet. This is a scientific concept that can never become a reality. I doubt if half of the people here take into account the earth is spinning and the moon is spinning around it. The lateral speed of earth orbit is around 80,000 mph, and it has a new, exaggerated wobble, that's changing. These people would find it easier to download a bolt of lighting into an electricity reservoir for public use.

  51.  @bonnie7898  Good morning! I'm up early, hot to get into replies, but I'm seeing 73 replies and can't find my reply that you have answered. Did I say you used empty words? China has a greater presence in my life than the United States does. The only time I see "Made in the U.S.A" or "Made in America" is on used items in buy and sell and charity stores. I'm sure most of the plastic products you use are from China, if not Asian manufacturing. I like to work with what is there, not sit back and complain about what isn't. Now I'm just typing, hoping it's relevant for you.

  56. Why predict war when you've got a war story to cover? What about the American fighter jet that fell of an aircraft carrier? Right away the news was the Chinese are trying to find it to steal the technology. This aircraft carrier was part of a military armada sailing in the South China Sea. Does anyone really think the Chinese would provoke war by taking on an armada to find a jet that fell off a boat? For three days major American media did.
