Some Claim Americans and the US is Hated Around the World
By: Lance Winslow
Why do people say that the US is hated around the world? I am always treated nicely and catered too as a tourist, as people have been very nice indeed. People in the US who travel little often repeat these things and believe them and they blame our government in our foreign policies. Why? America is a generous and great nation to the World.
The United States is the greatest nation ever created in the history of mankind. We need to make it even better. And work on a few minor issues, then we need to package the plan and allow for a United World Franchising System for those nations who truly desire to get with the program. Recently a reporter argued this point of contention to me and said that the following nations do no like us:
“UK, Iraq, Iran, North Korea, Bolivia, Venezuela, Cuba, Indonesia, France, Zimbabwe,
Colombia, Panama, Canadaâ€
Dear Sir, with the laundry list, How day you name Iran in that list as their leaders support Hamas, which wants to destroy Israel, blow it off the map and send in insurgents to disrupt the fledgling democracy in Iran. How dare you name the ever incessant man of political posturing and threatening in North Korea. Panama should be thankful we gifted them one of our major assets in the Hemisphere.
France, who cares, with their oil for food scandal hypocrisy, after they put out a media hit on the United States, meanwhile civil unrest there never stops with all their riots. Venezuela? please spare me. Columbia loves us without us where would they sell their drugs. Indonesia loved our aid after the Tsunami.
Bolivia is posturing and in crisis and attempting to be friends in the region and does not dislike us, they are actually rather neutral on the matter. Canada exists thru our protection with an Army of only 8,000 do not kid yourself, we have a huge trade deficit with them, without us their economy would not succeed at these levels. Besides I am always well treated in Canada when I visit. The UK is our ally. Your list is BS. I will not debate with pretenders of truth. The United States is well liked and we have many friends around the world, for those who claim otherwise, well it simply is not so. Consider this in 2006.
