Jeezus Krist! Obfuscation is your own speciality, Poop.
What you're doing is called Projection -
"Projection is a defense mechanism in which the ego defends itself
against disowned and highly negative parts of the self by denying
their existence in themselves and attributing them to others, breeding
misunderstanding and causing untold interpersonal damage. Projection
incorporates blame shifting and can manifest as shame dumping.
Projection has been described as an early phase of introjection."

What is your obsession with our Pledge of Allegiance to our flag?

I remember quite distinctly mumbling the Pledge of Allegiance daily in
school. There ain't a whole lot of anything more I remember of all
those wasted years listening to granny people who sought security in
themselves by dealing only with children and not with the adult world
in which the were powerless lusers who couldn't acquire the social
skills of dealing with those of their own age. (Whew...ran outta
breath with that sentence.)

No wonder you're only half literate.

If I remember right, it was us - America, who sent you the wherewithal
to survive. What amazes me to this day that such place as was the UK,
a country who at that time had the ability to supply citizens with the
guts of those who attempted the Dunkirk Rescue, plus others who
performed one of the bravest fights ever fought in a war, those of the
RAF, now is a shite hole of spineless weenies, whose riding of
children's bikes get them squashed by the dozens by the lorries.

never mentioned.)
