English is the language of the world now. That is the truth and the truth hurts. England colonized much of the world and the Americans brought commerce and technological advancement after them. That some other countries resent our success is their problem, not ours. English is taught as a required language in many countries where it is not a native language, so their people can compete in commerce and tourism.That is common sense on their part.Its possible they don't like it, even if it makes sense for them to do it. That does not make US bad!!! I don't believe we are loud, oblivious or insincere. An American will try to help you out when no one else will. We give more money to charities OUTSIDE our country than many other nations combined. We are FRANK ( some would say blunt) , not a bad quality in my opinion. You can count on us to tell you the truth, not yes you to your face and say/do something else behind your back. In Iraq, part of the problem has been that in Muslim culture, they tell you what they think you want to hear, and then do the ooposite behind your back.Maybe even pretend to be your friend and then take part in killing you. That kind of culture, you can keep. Well, if WE aren't welcome, we know our MONEY always is!!!! Sad but true!
