If, America is powerless then why do Americans offend you?

This most recent display of anti-American anger reminded me
that there are many people in the world who hate America. They don’t just hate America;
they hate anything and everything having to do with us. So much so that some
would be willing to blow themselves up if they were given the chance to take a
few of us with them. If that isn’t hate, I don’t really know what is.
The haters disagree with our culture and believe that we’re
avaricious little brats who are completely undeserving of possessing the world’s
most powerful country.
Naturally, the amount of animosity felt towards the U.S.
ranges from simple dislike (as can be found in France), to the more intense and
deep-seated loathing (such as in the Middle East). But why do they hate us so
much?
Our Culture
American culture why people hate America This reason mainly
applies to the Middle East, but there are other areas of the world that can’t
stand American culture.
They hate that we’re free to practice any religion (or not
at all), they hate that we have the freedom of speech and they hate that we
treat women and men equally.
They don’t like that we’re the world’s number one leader in
entertainment and they can’t stand that we have so much pride for our country.
Actually, I’m not really sure of anything that they like about our culture. If
you know of something, please don’t hesitate to let me know in the comments
below.
They’re Jealous
people are jealous of America know this reason sounds like
I’m just tooting my own American horn here, but let’s be honest; America is an
amazing country and is the world’s most desired place to live.
This outstanding awesomeness is naturally going to cause
people, who don’t live in America, to be jealous and this jealousy is a major
cause for all the hatred.
You won’t find people admitting this and I’m sure there are
many other excuses one could use for hating America, but when you’re on top
you’re going to have a lot of people hating you from the below. This doesn’t
mean other countries aren’t awesome in their own right, it just means that
people are naturally going to be jealous.
Unfortunately for the haters, and whether they like it or
not, neither America nor its citizens plan on going anywhere anytime soon, so
it would really be in their best interest to learn how to love us. Now isn’t
that a comical idea? The chances of that ever coming close to fruition is about
as likely as North Korea opening up its borders and no longer keeping its
citizens hostage. What can you do? Haters gonna hate
Unjustified hatred
There is much unjustified hatred in the world. There is
unjustified hatred of the USA. Much of this arises from the victimisation
complex that sweeps much of mankind. Whoever is in charge, whoever is powerful
or successful will also be hated. This immature hatred often evaporates quickly
with a little reason or thought. The second section of this essay lists some
invalid, unjustified criticisms. The most widespread hate is the hate by people
the world over who fall victim to their own shortcomings, and want a scapegoat.
When people are willing to kill themselves for a cause it is
not due to a whim or immature persecution complex. People willing to go this
far... and to maintain that mentality for periods of time to organize an attack
and carry it out have got more of a grudge than a mere jealousy or shallow
hatred of success. I will dismiss several "unjustified" causes of
hate in the second section of this essay. This essay is not geared to these
shallow reasons.
