Fear the English.
I've noticed a tendency in American films for the bad guy to always be English. Not just English, but upper-class, what-ho, by-jingo English.
Not being English myself, and having met a few of them, I can see why that might be, but once in a while Hollywood take it just that little bit too far.
I watched 'Dreamcatcher' recently. An excellent film, featuring the sort of mouth dentists dream about. The heroes are American, naturally, since it's an American film, and the bad guy is, once more, English. The trouble is that this time, the bad guy is from another planet.
Now, the English did indeed have an empire once, but I honestly don't think it was that big.

I haven't read any of David Icke's books because they might influence my balanced and sensible mind. Besides, there's no need. I know who's really running the world, but I'm under oath never to tell(on pain of... well, pain).
He has the English accent, but he's not from another planet. He just seems to be.
