If you grow up thinking that nothing else exists but your country and that the rest of the world envies you, then can't you see that you grow up a bit thick? It's funny that you/us Americans are so worried about the state of the world, how screwed up it is and all . But are to lazy and self righteous to pull our head out of our ASS to take a look around. A great nation like ours so self indulged to care what is happening around the world or how we are seen by the rest of the world. Bad things happen when good men and women do nothing. Stopping terrorism is easier than stopping slavery and you did that.
