Why do people pick on America?

Question

I could really insult every other country out there, but because I am not a rude, obnoxious person, I don't. It seems that American people are so good to the poor countries, the countries that have natural disasters, are being taken over by other countries, have evil dictators,etc. Yet it seems that no one appreciates the money, time , effort and care that we give them. They treat us poorly and It makes me wish that we would stop doing anything for any other country.

Answer 1

It's the "King of the Hill" behavior of other countries. There is a natural motivation to go after the person at the top of the hill and right now, America is on top of the hill. They are an easy target. Other countries will miss the support America provides when she is gone, and gone she will be one day. America is following the path of many previous great countries and is in the last phase of its demise. It will probably last another generation, maybe two and it will no longer be what it is now, a great and powerful country.

America is under attack by Mexico. With the open border to the south, Mexico is encouraging its citizens to migrate north. These "cultural bombs" are going off in every city in the country. Spanish is the second language now and the stupid govt is supporting it.

Mexico treats the USA very badly, as does just about every other country. The only real friend the USA has is England and Israel.

Answer 2

Poor countries don't need help!

" Poor countries " are rich in many ways but people put them down and " pick on them ".

If America was so RICH why don't they stay where they're at and help their POOR PEOPLE!

U.S. isn't being treated " poorly" ! The U.S. is treating other countries poorly!

U.S. wants to invade other countries, destroy their ways of life and tell lies and make claims they can't even prove.

Now who's going to suffer?.. The American people that's who.

Parents of dead soldiers, U.S. falling dollar, travel.

More than 1280 American troops have died (December 12, 2004) and more than 10,000 have been wounded. These numbers do not include the estimated 16% of the soldiers who will develop serious depression, anxiety, and PTSD disorders after returning from Iraq and the potential violence that accompany their return

The war in Iraq has undermined the US commitment to internationalism and has led to a US denial of the realities of life in the global community. The citizens of virtually every nation in the world have condemned and criticized the United States for its actions thus harming future international relations and making it unsafe for Americans to travel to many places throughout the globe.

Ask the people in the " poor " countries and see what they think...

Iraqi insurgent and civilians that now exceed 30,000 dead and 100,000 wounded. Reports also indicate that starvation, disease, famine, malnutrition, and trauma are exacting a harsh toll on Iraqi children that may be irreversible creating yet another generation of pain and suffering and future revenge seekers. As one resident of Fallujah stated: "I feel hatred. I hurt. This is my city and it has been destroyed … the people of Fallujah are people of revenge. If they don't get their revenge now, they will next year or even after 50 years. But they will get it."

Little kids starving, families dying... all because of the war.

You really think U.S. can fix the war ??

No, they're just making it worse.

Answer 3

Several reasons. Pride, for one. No one likes to feel like they can't handle their own business and to have someone who has way more money and strength than you just swoop in and "fix" everything can be a damaging blow to national pride. It implies that they cannot solve their own problems.

Another reason is fear. Any nation with as much military and financial strength as the US has is something that people fear. They may appreciate the help but it may worry them that the US may just take over their country.

Then there is jealously. People, especially those in poverty or in war-torn countries, do envy countries where people seem to "have it all." Who wouldn't want to be free of worries about starvation and have freedoms we take for granted? This envy leads to bitterness and that turns into the rude and angry comments.

Answer 4

Yep, we should leave them alone.

We can't help those poor people and it effects Americans. We're more biased now because we think they're poor and Americans think that Muslims are bad now.

Those guys in Iraq were wealthy lol. But, I guess the Dinar is worth virtually nothing now.

It will probably take 50 years to rebuild Iraq now and they'll be in debt up to their eyeballs.

But, who's going to pay to help them? I don't want to do it.

Answer 5

The general attitude from your country is quite different from anywhere else also the way most people are brought up thinking that America is number 1 in everything,when you're not & it gets other countries just fed up with the U.S.

I used to live in Georgia & alot people did not know where England was in Europe also thought Scotland was apart of England not above as for Wales what is that.

But one good turn only one person is told about it, one bad thing everybody will now. Before you say thats Georgia for you it the general attitude from most of my ex Brit colleges

English cars that break down what about the American junk on the road! the yanks are gayer than the Brits

Answer 6

Because some countries are in huge debt and only the people in politics how they are being helped by other countries

and theres nothing wrong in helping them even though they wont appreciate it, you know, you dont expect something in return when you give

Answer 7

United States did go over to Iraq and forced every bank to refuse honoring any Iraq currency with other banks.

That's why old dinar is worth ZERO.

U.S. lied about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction.

U.S. created torture camps which violate the Geneva Convention.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guantanamo_Bay_detention_camp

Evidence of pictures showed how U.S. troops torturing Iraq prisoners.

Maybe, that's why some people are mad. Because our hard earned tax money is going towards these wonderful and godly intents.

The other countries are just jealous that they can't do the same. Suckers!

We're America and we decide what gets done and when it gets done!

Iran is helping Iraq militants by giving them weapons to kill our troops. We're spending billions of dollars worth of fuel driving Hummers and sacrificing U.S. troops to help them and Middle East.

U.S. is not helping they're just pissing people off being there. Other countries just look at us and know how pointless it is and that's why they're not helping.

Link shows American troops bumping cars out of the way in Iraq. American style! Whooyaa!! Westside! Just imagine yourself driving in front of that Humvee with a baby on board...

If someone did that to my car.. someone's going to get shot.

Where is Bin Ladin?

Answer 8

The only thing I can think of is perhaps they are jealous. You're right, we keep giving and giving and it is never enough. All we get is ridiculed for our efforts.

Answer 9

America is being attacked because of its intervention in the affairs of other countries just like the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq.

Answer 10

Jealousy

I say we nuke the b*stards!
