exactly!
People bitch and moan all day long about the US, and when it comes down to it, it's because we are on top.

I dont really trust or like him other than for his response to 9/11 wherein he promissed to hunt down and kill those responsible for 9/11 and their conspirators.....Now as for Kerry I dont trust him either because he is unpredictable and hides behind his running mates smile and smooth attorney like tact in dealing with apponents......Now I know Kerry opens his mouth just find but him and his mini me running mate are never more than a hug away from each other....I dont trust a man that leans that much on others that to me shows a lack of faith in his own abilities.

So I have to ask... why is it that some Americans are allowed to criticize my health system as "socialist" or accuse my country of being a haven for terrorists - and in the same breath reassure me that I shouldn't be angry, they're not attacking my nation but only my government - while on the other hand, when we foreigners criticize the U.S. government, some Americans automatically adequate that with us hating America?
I'll say it again for the benefit of a few posters - we don't HATE America. I personally respect very much what America stands for and has accomplished in its 200-year history. However, as a person concerned with politics and how the actions of individual governments are affecting the world, you bet I'm going to give my opinion.

Okay, so why does the world hate us?
who says the world hates us? are you perhaps too eager to believe the liberal US media? that is your choice.
the same "world" you and others claim have such hatred for the US, they are clamouring to enter our borders, to live here, to taste freedom.
they see the US as free, and know it is so, yet do not understand the way to go about achieving such freedom in their own country, so the easy thing to do, is emigrate to the Great United States of America.
Mexicans, Guatemalans, Peruvians, Cubans, Germans, Indians, Pakastani's, Muslim, Buddhist, Christian alike, they are here in the homeland of the free, why have they come?????? Because they hate us????
you figure it out, my friend.
edited to add, the untold countless nationalities that have come, and continue to come, Bosnian, Egyptian, French, Italian, Korean, Chinese, ad. infinitum.......

I just think that if people continue to make war for nothing (yeah for nothing.....except money, oil and investments...) the world will totally collapse in a few years. People are getting hateful, racist and governments are encouraging people to hate those other nations...like Hitler encouraged germans to hate jews. That make a world war! Now the same patern is repeating but the big force is USA!

The US population won't wake up. Something very horrible will have to be irrefutably revealed before anyone will take it seriously. Even then, there will still be many who will be in denial.
