There you have it, the rest of the world DOES NOT LIKE THE US...
The question is: Are they just scared yuppie propaganda victims, or is the US really the biggest peace threat?

jonmorrit's answer is the most thoughtless, dumb response I have ever read on this site!! The United States does NOT have a habit of invading first and asking questions later.
We are the most generous, giving nation that has ever existed. Who else in history has ever rebuilt the countries they defeated in war, such as Germany and Japan, both aggressors, I might add.? Who else comes to the aid to the extent we do when a natural disaster hits another country? Who else sends food and clothing and medical supplies to Third World Countries so they can survive drought, famine, or epidemics?
We did invade Iraq, and indeed we had good reason to do so!!
Yes, they are scared yuppie propaganda victims. A shame, but it is true!!
I hope you agree.

They don't like us? So what? Part of being a great leader is the willingness to do what you believe is right, whether or not it's popular. Contrast with Clinton, who was willing to do whatever was popular, whether or not it was right.
And as a previous answerer said, peace alone is not necessarily a good thing. We're technically at "peace" with Cuba now, in the sense that we're not fighting them, but how good is that for the average Cuban? If they're doing so well there, why do they risk their lives to try to make it to our shores? Not that I'm advocating another invasion, just making a point.

Peace in and of itself is not a good thing. Peace with freedom is. In that sense, seeing as how most people live under dirt poor corrupt dictatorships or invasive socialist governments, yes.

The rest of the world doesn't have to like us. They just have to do as we tell them.
The poor always dislike the rich, mostly because of jealousy. The weak dislike the strong.
If it weren't for the rich and strong, where would they be? hungry and unprotected

in case you seem on the armed forces budget for each usa in the international, 50% of entire spending is by ability of the US. Its somewhat unbalanced! US spending on armed forces == some thing else of the international mixed armed forces spending. So some international locations would sense threatened. united statesa. has a lengthy heritage of interfering in different international locations. inspite of the actual undeniable truth that to be honest, maximum of that replaced into results of the chilly conflict, the position they were compelled to counter Soviet meddling.

With the president and rubber stamp congress we have now anything is possible, He is subject to do anything at any time. I think it is mostly due to the drugs and alcohol that he is still doing for his erratic behavior.

The US has a tendancy to "invade first - think about it later", so I would say "yes" to the above question.
