I have travelled all over the world - Europe, Russia, China, Tibet, Egypt, etc. I have never encountered outright dislike of Americans. Of course, I am a native New Yorker - maybe I just didn't notice. Come to think of it, I have encountered outright hostility against NYC in the Midwest.
Seriously, generalizations about all English, all Germans, etc. are by definition misleading, unless of course you have honestly polled all living Germans and English. Read the U.S. Press and you will assume all Middle Easterners are terrorists, all NY police officers are potential mass murderers, etc.
Anyone who cares will investigate further. Those who don't - who cares?
