I've been a few places in this world and have met quite a few different people from different cultures. I?m not saying I?ve been everywhere and met everyone but I have yet to meet a culture of people that are more aggressive and prone to fighting as Americans. Say what you will about us but saying we?re cowards just makes you look like you?re looking for the next reason to hate us.
I doubt feelings towards the US are mainly related to culture or whatever country you hail from.

When almost the whole world, least currently, cannot trust a nation that proclaims high moral values, there is a problem. Doubt it's a matter of the world being out of step, more probably the US in this instance that is out of step with reality.

I can't say US people are cowards - they are no different to anywhere else. However, the actions of the US government over decades has given rise for concern and does so more recently. These are actions that could be defined as "errors of judgement", but to have so many "errors of judgement" knocks credibility. This is not exactly a responsible conduct and I no longer have any doubt that the US is a rogue regime and it's leadership is little more than a loose cannon rolling over the deck. They can't be trusted with 5 cents.

That, btw, has nothing to do with any "hatred" of US folks - can't say I have any "hatred" of any people. We all gotta live
