Why do you hate the USA?

I know why our country hates The USA
We are bombarded with your media, laws and beliefs. We no longer are different from you, we are slowly becoming you. And the public doesn't like it.
I have a knowledge of americas stereotypes, schooling systems and power hungry politicians through television and films. When the presedential race was occuring it was front page news in our country. At the same time, our prime minister was making our ecomony fall apart with a proposal for a reduced VAT rate and to abolish parts of our NHS. This news was ignored because of americas news. People saw something wrong there, let me tell you.
We are also bombarded with images of severe racism originating from america, severe obesity and torture of suspected terrorists. I'm not saying I agree but it is changing the opinion quickly.
People are beginning to see britain as americas lapdog and people want britain to become independant again. Hate is spread through our infamous tabloids and people who have nothing better to do believe it.
America has its stereotypes about us, all because of a war that occured a long time ago between britain and your country. We watched a film recently, meant for children, which blatantly insulted the british in a song about the civil war. I was appalled. I don't walk around singing the simpsons to every american person I know, so why should this be shown to children for christs sake?
America has its good points and its bad. Same with britain. As much as I go on, I would still love to visit CERTAIN parts of america. I couldn't survive in alabama. I'd be chucked out of there with a shotgun in about five minutes, I reckon. Florida, hawaii (my dream holiday) perhaps alaska, and other areas would be good. I would find hollywood a laugh.

Most people don't hate the USA they hate your government. You are perhaps some of the most niavely friendly people in the world mixed with the most macavelien and materialisticaly synical. I personally love America, having actually been to visit. (L.A an SannDiago) Your flaire for inovation and optimism is truly great, but like the U.K (my country) you've fallen into the "we are the best" trap. Cure yourselves of that and you really could be world changers.

1) Don't underestimate the other nations of the world.

2) Honour the indiginous peoples in the USA.

3)Recognise that you are not seperate from your history, learn it, embrace it.

4)we may well make interstellar contact but not untill we sort this planet out. spend the space program money on wells and schools and sh**.

Sweden isn't a 3rd world nation, so including it is unnecessary given the nature of the original comment.

I can't stand going to the UK. I hate having to go in Heathrow airport. That's about one of the few reasons I hate it, other than the snotty British people.

The country I despise is Israel. Israel - #1 Geneva Convention Violators

The State of Israel never signed the convention so it is not bound by the convention. I might point out that the Palestinians do many more outrageous things in battle and in insurgent war than do the Israelis.

The Geneva Convention is just that, a convention and it is not universally binding on Mankind. It is an agreement of convenience among certain nations to keep the casualty count in wars down to a sustainable minimum. It is certainly not Holy Writ and it was not handed down to Man from a mountain top.

As regards international humanitarian law, the Court first recalls that Israel is not a party to the Fourth Hague Convention of 1907, to which the Hague Regulations are annexed. It considers, however, that the provisions of the Hague Regulations have become part of customary law, as is in fact recognized by all the participants in the proceedings before the Court. The Court also observes that, pursuant to Article 154 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, that Convention is supplementary to Sections II and III of the Hague Regulations. Section III of those Regulations, which concerns “Military authority over the territory of the hostile State”, is particularly pertinent in the present case.

Funny how no one hardly ever brings this up as well as what happened in the Abu Ghraib event or the death toll of Palestinians being far more greater than the Israelites.
