I guess I will write off that trip to check out antiquities in Egypt. :) I know Greece has always hated the US; I think it has to do with US support of military juntas. I have heard stories about Vietnam being a very pro-American place despite how we tried to bomb it back to the stone age. Disappointed in Turkey making the list. How about the Italians and French! Spend my money in those places instead of Germany.

Cant blame Egypt. We backed the Muslim Brotherhood.

They like our money. They hate us a little less than they hate the Chinese.

If we had wanted to bomb north Vietnam “back to the Stone Age” it wouldn’t have taken very long.

Unfortunately that isn’t what we did. Instead we dropped more bombs on mostly empty jungle than we’re dropped in all of ww2.
