Americans are viewed around the world as (651)
ukrainegary48Donetsk, Uzbekistan63 Threads 1,113 Postsi used to have an Irish friend. i use to have to ask him to repeat everything. but really where your at when you ask about Americans.
Dawn7z: i am trying not to be defensive but if i put the irish in there instead of american i am sure there would be some reaction
well thats a bit silly Ireland has always been Neutral,
we dont start wars,
the only war we fought was with ourselves after the english occupied us for 800 years and left a huge mess behind.
The reason i feel sorry for the people in iraq is because your troops are now occupying them
Sundown40: As an American...I guess I can speak here. That is one of the rights I have. If we are viewing what everyone thinks of America...I can only speak for myself. I LOVE MY COUNTRY.
Though it was said by someone else here...I don't agree with everything the government is doing...I have a choice to agree or disagree. Unlike some of the other countries.
I choose to live in this Country because of the freedom, the rights, the fact it is my birth place and the beautiful scenery around me. Ozark Mountains are gorgeous this time of year with all the tree changes (OK getting off topic sorry)
I can hunt, fish, raise my little farm the way I want without someone telling me I can or can't. I ride my horses when and where I want. I buy and sell or give away what I want off my place. I go to work or stay at home. There's so many different choices and freedoms I have or can do that other countries wouldn't allow.
As far as how others view us...does it really matter?? Some countries need us...just as we need them.
I love America and all it has to offer.

i am not being silly so dont patronize me. i respect you have your opinions but would you like your country to be criticized on any level

morgan5: Just an observation but does seem as tho any thread like this is always about the American's, have to say if i was American it would really piss me off. jmo
I have to say this is a little bit irritating because most of the people I know want peace and just to be able to survive .
I myself created a day where everyone comes together and meditates on world peace .
SO to only have two categories to categorize everyone is very judgemental in my viewpoint . But this is a narrow minded viewpoint . It is like saying that we all want peace . If we all wanted peace we would not hate .
Ever heard the saying don't judge a book by it's cover .
kev147: Any thoughts
i have enjoyed most of the irish people i have met on here and most people do not desire war of any kind but i have a right to differ with you and since i am not physically able i wont arm wrestle you over it.
you cant say anything bad about America. these people have been brainwashed to think they rule the world. and if your a foreigner you will never be accepted buy the American people. to your face they love you. they don't mind if you fight there wars for them. as long as you keep your mouth shut.

hogwash we have minds and think for ourselves. get a clue
i lived among you Americans for 44 years so i know how you think.
Boban1: nope....you may not ....
Ok
Dawn7z: i am not being silly so dont patronize me. i respect you have your opinions but would you like your country to be criticized on any level
Sorry i dont mean to patronize i just dont get your point.
ireland is critized all the time and sometimes rightly so,
and for the millionth time this is about how america is viewed !!
Personally america should be world leaders,should be the guiding light of the world,
but your not your far from it,
i blame bush but obama needs to act now and get out of iraq and stop killing innocent people do you not agree?
Where is all this change that was promised,
as i said earlier im worried there will be another fat man
morgan5: Just an observation but does seem as tho any thread like this is always about the American's, have to say if i was American it would really piss me off. jmo
I have to tell you Morgan, I am tired of threads about why do Americans do this or why don't they travel, or why don't they blah, blah, blah or what do you think of Americans.
I don't care what anyone thinks of Americans. I am a proud American who is patriotic down to the core of my bones.
Isn't there anything constructive to talk about?
Why do some people have the need to tear others apart.

very interesting reminds me of the buffalo soldier
here is an example of how arrogate Americans are. both the USA and Russia have invaded afghanistan. when the Russians done it they were evil. when USA done it they were doing it for freedom hogwash.

I think that would be the same in EVERY country, and if we asked the people on the street thats what we all want.I myself created a day where everyone comes together and meditates on world peace .

Think we all need to look in our own back yard, before we comment on other countries

Think you are being unrealistc if you think you are ever really completely accepted when you live in another country, regardless of what country it is

America is the root of sedition and an agressive element but only america is not responsible of that ,Terrorists and smagglers are a part of it.snuggs99: I have to tell you Morgan, I am tired of threads about why do Americans do this or why don't they travel, or why don't they blah, blah, blah or what do you think of Americans.

I agree snuggs, i'm not American but it winds me up I don't care what anyone thinks of Americans. I am a proud American who is patriotic down to the core of my bones.

the American way. is to think there better then every other country.
snuggs99: If someone on here said the Ukraine is blah, blah, blah, wouldn't you defend your country and yourself being that you are from the Ukraine?
nobody said america is blah blah as you put it,
its simply a discussion,
are americans unable to have a discussion ?
Ive already said America with your power should be the world leaders and the leading lights but your not,
was it bushs fault like i said?
why not try add to the discussion instead of getting so defensive
know since i,m a Russian know i would not. this is how arrogant Americans are they invade a country they say we can make it like America. not everyone in the world wants to be like America. your system is not the best buy far.

now thats a great point,
these muslim countries really dont want to be like america so why force them to be ?
i like to American get all over me for talking bad about the USA. they seem to forget i went to school in America, i was raised in America. i know how you Americans think.
i must say ive liked every american ive met i just wish they'd sort out their foreign policy

In the first place, I used the words blah instead of an adjective
I am defensive because every day there's a thread about why Americans do this or why they don't do that
Americans are very capable to have a discussion. Many will tell you that they love their country and hate their government.
Many went to war to fight for countries that don't want us there and many lost their lives
Whadda ya think about that!!!
I did add to the discussion and told you how I feel about America.
Cant we all just get along..
We are people..
We all live in different countries..raised differently..
Different laws..
but lest we forget..we bleed..we feel pain..we feel love..we hate..we are all Gods people..
We are the same down deep inside..
Well except for ladies have different parts and for men..
but really come on..why all this..

now thats better good post !
and to answer your question,
if the countries didnt want you there, then they were lives lost for nothing dont you think
well since i spent 22 years in the united states army. even through alot think i hate all Americans. that far from the truth. i still have some good American friends. because i one time in my life i felt like America was worth dieing for. life and few other things changed my mind. but what makes me ill about USA. everything is find as long as you agree with there views on life. i can remember know matter how long i lived in the USA once someone found out i was born in Russia. i through i was evil.
