What is the us citizen opinion concerning the abroad reputation of the USA ?

Question

Do you take care or you don't give a s... about what the rest of world think of the US in general
I'm french and i really want to know what 's your opinion or your feeling concerning the image your country show to the world..
From outside US, USA (not usa but your politicians) show an arrogant country, proud of himself, contained on its own country (Kyoto agreements, war in Iraq, US policy in European east countries)
May be my question is stupid but i'd like to know what US people feel

To danskepj, Concerning the 2nd world war, erybody thanks the US , this is not the point of my question.
If we go trough history, do you think USA should forgive France for all the bullshits we can do ? because we help you several century ago ? US Independance in 1776 (france send weapons to US, 1778 france send vessels to US) ?

Answer 1

This clown of a president and his buddies have turned our country into a police state. They've made us the laughing stock of the world not to mention this quagmire he got us into in Iraq.
Hopefully today the balance of power will shift away from these religious WACKOS who are screwing up the country.

Answer 2

We had a coup in 2000. Since then, the majority of our population has had to sit back and watch as this rogue government has done whatever it wants. It is part of the "big lie" with which your country is only too familiar, as you got to witness the same thing in the 1940's. The same things that happened in Germany in the 1930's & 40's are happening here. The Reich stag was burned, the wars, the plunder, repression of dissent and the press, children in the youth camps, "The Triumph of the Will," etc. Blair's speech on Global Warming was only available to us on the internet! The Kyoto treaty is advertised as bad for business. The War in Iraq was a lie and we only found out years later. If you protest it is not shown on tv. If you speak out you are called a traitor and conceivably could go to Guantanamo without legal counsel. Your question is not stupid.

Answer 3

My friend we are going through troubled times..I don't think your question is stupid ..but give us a break...and travel to Normandy..
and ask that of the American dead,whose sacrifice is big part of why the beautiful french language isn't German today !!
Americans can be Arrogant but remember your french!!!
Vegeta,
I am very well aware of French help with the American revolution
and no I don't think the french owes us much.. but France
also has questionable periods in it's history.as well domestic
problems!!I I have lived in Europe for half my life and I do find
Europeans every bit as Arrogant as Americans.and sadly they know very little about America! if you knew the truth than
you would know that 70% of the people are againts the war in Iraq so obviously we are not happy with our image!!! I'm sorry if
I insulted you,it wasnt my intention1

Answer 4

Arnold DOES wish to be president sooner or later, and it could grow to be. The motive I say that is that in accordance to a couple assets.,Hawaii isn't a authorized state of the United States. So, if Obama is victorious in fitting president, Arnold can argue that if Obama may also be president, so can he. I accept as true with the Constitution as it's written. This nation is America and thus no different nation is entitled to manipulate it. One different factor I wish to precise is that an American citizen, born right here in America, that runs for public workplace ought to NOT be allowed to make use of a twin nation name, equivalent to, Spanish American etc. It's approximately time all of us got here in combination as one and dropped that rubbish. We are ALL Americans and will have to be happy with that!

Answer 5

Americans seem to hate two things, Terrorists and the French. They hate the French because they are not poodles to Bush like Blair of England is. The arrogance of the USA is something that makes Terrorism the threat to the world that it is.

Answer 6

French is more arrogant than American, American has helped a lot of 3rd world country depending their freedom during the WWII, i didn't hear European country do this much.

Answer 7

I live in Thailand, and I can tell you that many Asians frown at how America behaves in the 21st century political and economic sphere, let alone the Muslim and Arab nations. I hope that the Democrats win such that they can fix the damage that the Republicans have done. God bless this world has peace and prosperity.

Answer 8

Your question isn't stupid. I really don't care what other nations think. I act locally, and my world pretty much consists of the 30 square miles I inhabit. Narrow? For sure, but that's my life and I am happy with it. I love Vegeta.
