Not true. The US invented the Internet and the protocols which make it work. Tim Berners Lee invented the World Wide Web, which sits atop the Internet, and is the most widely used part of it, but he didn't have anything to do with inventing the Internet or Internet Protocols at all.
If the Internet was a road system, the US built it and painted all the lines on it to make it easy to drive on. What Berners Lee did was invent a really popular car that people can use on the road system.
