Either this is a wind up - looking at your other questions it must be - or the answer is contained in the adjective in your name.
From a UK point of view I dont think we have persecuted you for at least a couple of hundred years and we have probably left it a bit late to start again now.
Its not, I think, that everybody at school hates the rich kid. Its more that everybody hates the rich kid when they are dumb and insular and sappy and dont seem to want to make use of their privileged position for anything beside the right to be able to put ridiculous amounts of petrol into an SUV at the cost of thousands of lives.
From a UK perspective I think we see you making many of the same mistakes the British Empire did and thats just galling.

Persecuted??
You do read the news and watch TV don't you?
Are they not at conflict with someone they are strong arming them (government of course!) Unfortunately, the U.S. citizens are the ones that pay the price for their government's actions!
I try not to let it cloud my image of the regular American people!
Peace!

They brag,they are convinced they won world war 1 and world war 2 and without them the whole world would go to hell in a hand cart,that the mighty dollar is number 1.
Having said that if they saw what happens in the rest of the world instead of just America they just might understand a bit more, they have claimed to have invented just about everything, They are taught in schools that America is the only Christian country to take on world , swearing aligns to your country and flag is no bad thing its a good thing but please keep it in perspective

They are paying for their follies with muslims, arabs in West Asia, Gulf Countries etc. When you go screw them in their own countries they are bound to strike back and than americans feel persecuted. Why they started it in the first place? Live and let live should be the philosophy

What, by who? If your talking about our government being persecuted, it is because our President is lying to the world and his country. If we are bombed now, it will be becuase of him. I personally think we were bombed because of him, he came into power and some didnt like that.....

Because we ask for it. We went in and invaded Iraq, asked France to join in and when France said "show us proof and we will" and we didnt and basically said "screw you" then it turns out they were lying and didnt have any proof. Plus we drive SUV's everywhere, eat too much and waste a lot. We act like whatever we do we can fix b\c were the superpower of the world

well, internal you're persecuted because your leaders are greedy idiots. external, because, well, a recent poll showed that americans are incapable of not intervening in other people's problems.
