<<<That's just the tired old rap that demonizes the US simply because we've been successful.>>>

That is what the neocons want us to believe, that our traditional allies, the Ducth, French, Spainards, Belgians, Danes, the English, Germans, Canadians, Italians, Mexicans, Swedes, etc, for the most part, their citizenry, now hate hate us - because they are jealous - that we are too successful.

That is like the woman who thinks, "they all hate me because I am too beautiful".

Or, the mother who thinks all the other kids in school hate her child because her child is too good, too smart, or too pretty. They are all jealouse.

Get a grip mom. For the most part kids that are the best looking, the most athletically gifted, the brightest kids in the class are the leaders and the other kids want to be with.

If your kid is unpopular, you may have to look for some other reason. Perhaps its easily correctible. Maybe all she needs to do is wash her hands once in a while or get rid of her secretary of defensiveness.
