Anti-Americanism from abroad would not be such a problem if Americans were united in standing up for their own country.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Some anti-Americanism derives simply from our being a colossus that bestrides the earth. But much anti-Americanism derives from the role U.S. political, economic and military power has played in denying such freedoms to others.
Anti-Americanism is a pure totalitarian concept. The very notion is idiotic.
The American people are not anti-immigrant. We are concerned about the lack of coherence in our immigration policy and enforcement.
Well of course New Zealand isn't anti-American.
There's nothing new about European anti-Americanism. To go to a dinner party of intellectuals in Paris in 1960 was like walking into a tiger's den with a piece of raw meat in your hands.
But, actually, it is only Americans who say that our freedoms and prosperity are the reason foreigners hate us. If you ask the foreigners, they make it clear that it's America's bullying foreign policy they detest.
Today it is becoming increasingly apparent to thoughtful Americans that we cannot fight the forces and ideas of imperialism abroad and maintain any form of imperialism at home. The war has done this to our thinking.
It seems that American patriotism measures itself against an outcast group. The right Americans are the right Americans because they're not like the wrong Americans, who are not really Americans.
Let me say this on a personal note. Without the United States of America, I would in all probably not be able to stand here before you today.
Every day at some point I encounter some sort of anti-American feeling.
