I think Dana's said it all, some excellent points there my dear.

Of course there is anti-American sentiment, but lets take the word 'American' out for a second. Most people, in most countries, will be 'anti' something, most of the time. For the English, it is usually the Monarchy, the NHS, America, the French, the Germans, Scottish football, the Northerners, the Southerners... you get the idea. Wherever there is a distinction there is conflict. It just so happens that America is being run by the most incompetant deluded unfettered fool in modern history, which kind of adds to that 'anti' sentiment.

But please, most of us are not stupid enough to blame the average Joe (see how we adapt your terminology - imitation is the highest form of flattery) for political and world events. As vsp says, you get wankers in every country; don't assume all people only hate Americans. Some idiots hate everyone else too.

PS. Excuse me UT could we have a 'cup of tea' smiley please?
