No other country behaves as badly as this internationally.. I dunno why, but looks like it comes from ignorance of others on the planet.

And yes, it has been going on for a long time now.
I did mean culture when I said culture.. yes the political issues you mention are very important as well.. but I'm talking about the American culture.. what we wear, our television shows, etc etc. In the Middle East specifically, because of their strong religious beliefs, they fell we are all living in sin.. etc etc.

Other countries don't like American entertainment constantly bombarding their TV's and radios.. because it Americanizes their society. I know I know... just don't import our media.. I know it's contradictory but this is what other countries think. Don't shoot me just 'cause I'm the messenger
