Our own. I answered this that way because we Americans think we know all the answers to all of the world's problems. We leave no room for debate/input from other countries despite most being far older than the United States. The current foreign policy strategy is resonant of that attitude.
We Americans do not learn from our history. We tend to constantly make the same mistakes over and over again.
I have noticed on various television shows that come on PBS and the like that most, if not all other countries relish their history, the good and the bad. Some, especially the British are coming to terms with their part in the Slave Trade marking the anniversary of when the British Empire outlawed the practice.
Several years ago, I was looking at a show where a Palestian man was being interviewed. He spoke how he had been trying to legally reclaim his family homestead, a piece of land that had been taken. He sat there and named how many generations had lived there going back 500 years or more. Just tell me, how many of us in America can actually do that? Not many. The task is extremely daunting for a person of color.
Mix this attitude with us Americans always being judgemental, shallow not to mention meddlesome, especially about something we know nothing or little about, we are ripe to become just like George Orwell's "1984."
Don't get me wrong. I love this country. I am, for the most part proud of being an American. I tend to agree with comedian Chris Rock's assessment during one of his stand up routines about this country. To paraphrase, he said that America to African-Americans was like the relative who paid your way through school but abused you.
But we Americans as a whole, no matter the back ground, must learn that our way of life is not the only way of life. What looks wrong to us may not be to someone else.

We Americans should fear America the most, not only becasue of the ignorant government, but becasue our resources will be running out. America is over populated, and yet the government want to blindly let more mexican immagrants come through the borders. We have many poor people of our own the we should be doing something about, but instead we make the rich richer and the poor poorer. America is sending itself down the drain.

The USA should fear the country or countries that are governed by fanatic Islamic theocratic leaders.
By their complete disregard for human lives, they are totally capable of detonating a nuclear device in any mayor city in the US. Something they are very eager to do.

America shouldn't fear anyone. Fear is weakness and only plays into the hands of others wishing to dominate us whether foreign or domestic.

ANY country with an extremely limited freedom of information or with an substantial portion of the population disenfranchised.

In this day there is no single country but an idea. An idea that all we stand for is evil, that is the belief of terrorism. There is no single country that this applies to but some such as Iran and Venezuela feel as if they can do whatever they wish with no regards for others.
