No, not really intimidation.

I only really see that flag on tsr from imperial apologists and in soccer games.



England led Britain with its empire, and should be held accountable for the majority of the damage caused by british imperialism.


I don't think you quite know what the English flag is. This is the English flag:

PS. The British Empire was supported by English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish people, not purely the English.

Are you some kind of retard who thinks it's 1774? Surely the French, Spanish, Dutch, Danish flags, among many others, must also be Imperial symbols?

How the **** does being English make me an imperial? ****. You Americans are so hypocritical when it comes to Imperialism. You think you're still fighting for representation when really you shove your ****ing noses in other peoples businesses.

Yes, other european countries had imperialistic ambitions too.

The USA doesn't have an empire and never has. There is a difference. The US helps countries that it gets involved in, as opposed to destroying them. Look at what happened to India, Africa, the middle east. The USA is still cleaning up the problems caused by European imperialism.

The welsh flag is cool btw. I like how the sky is white. Is that cos it rains a lot?


Check again.^ I updated it, accidentally copy and pasted the same links.

It does rain a lot, but I doubt that's its significance.
Mozambique's flag is AWESOME!

Just noticed, sorry.

Umm, nationality is not the same as race.

The English flag is a symbol of imperialism.


In which case so are the Confederates flag, and any other flag whose jurisdiction has participated in imperialism (China, Spain, France, Russia, Iran), for which the USA is a member of.

the most significant link between the symbol of the Red Dragon and Wales occurred when Henry Tudor flew the red dragon of Cadwallader during his invasion of England.[3] Henry was of Welsh descent and after leaving France with an army of 2000, landed at Milford Haven on 7 August. He made capital of his Welsh ancestry in gathering support and gaining safe passage through Wales. Henry met and fought Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth Field, and in victory took the English throne. After the battle, Henry carried the Red Dragon standard in state to St. Paul's Cathedral, and later the Tudor livery of green and white was added to the flag

Iraq, South Korea, West europe after WWII, columbia, Israel etc. There are plenty of examples of where US intervention has helped save those particular areas.

No, it ONLY destroys them, or has ambitions of doing so. Hillary Clinton is itching to invade Syria (she just is, look at any news broadcast) and all Condoleeza Rice did was stick her nose in other countries' business when it had nothing to do with her or America. The US doesn't need an empire, it just bombs countries whose leaders they don't like.
