Whilst they like our products and conveniences, they abhor that our culture is seeping in and destroying many of the traditions and values that have kept them going for so long.

That pretty much sums it all up. They hate our culture, yet they import it themselves. They hate our decadence, yet they are oogling the Baywatch babe's tits and wearing Nike labeled goods.

I don't necessarily approve of everything that our government does. However, it disgusts me when the whiners from these other countries act as if they have no participation in the process. If they don't want to pay the price of having our culture seep in, then they should stop buying our goods and stop asking us to defend them from their big bad neighbors.
