Couple that with the attrocious foriegn policy that our government has handed out since the good old post WWII days, and viola, you have the hatred of America by most foriegn countries. In a world getting ever smaller, we can't afford to be the cops and assholes in charge anymore. It is time to open dialogs and send out envoys to our friends snd enemies alike, start a goodwill tour if you will. We need to be seen as the good guys that we can be. The World already knows the large hammer we hold, and to shake it in their face only adds to the hatred. Think how you'd feel if china had all the weapons and we had none and they were bullying the world including us, marching soldiers and tanks down our boulevards, kicking in our front doors and dragging us out to the gulags, welcome to Iraq. You think those people like us, you think the rest of the world is not watching, wake up man, this shit is real.

listen to this man, he's making sense.
