Subject: RE: BS: Who loathes the USA: A quiz from the BBC
How sad. I thought America did more good around the world than seems to be beleived. I don't hate British people because I can't stand their tabloids. It makes it seem as if Americans are universally despised. It should be remembered that not all Americans support those things that piss the world off. Now I can understand lately why people may have that idea. There seems to be an attitude abroad lately that America can do whatever it wants because it is the lone Superpower. That attitude scares me. America by and large has a history of doing noble things to help other, weaker, less fortunate countries. I would hate to see us do something not noble such as an unprovoked attack on another country-without solid PROOF of something, because we despise that country's leader. What would happen if we left S Korea? They seem to want us to. Maybe we need to pull back and mind our own business more.
