Racer, I was born and raised in Germany. Thereafter I lived in Germany on four different occasions for a total of 16 years as European director for one of the largest companies in the world. I still visit my family four times per year. Yes, I have been out of the Hinterland a few times. Those are my personal thoughts and observations, I wish it could be different. I am tired of the eternal onslaught of Anti-Americanism by the German Government officials and their Media. Is it just because we keep quiet? Try assaulting the Germans best "new friends" China and Russia. Oh, I forgot, Russia would stop the Oil and Gas and China would would retaliate since they don't really believe in free speech?
Below I wrote something else that may stir your disgust:
perceived superiority is, in my opinion, a Gene that is present in most Germans. (Uebermenschen, Master race, etc.) I should know, I used to be one of them and can still remember how I thought and opined at the tender age of 19 when I immigrated from that country.

Uebermensch, sorry but thats BS. Maybe where you came from? Not where I am from. On the subject "OIL". Let's talk about Saudi Arabia hmmmm. Freedom of speech?? Equal rights for women??? I could go on forever. Oil, Oil, Oil!!!! That's why we had to go to Iraq - the Oil Dollar!
GERMANS ARE NOT ANTI AMERICAN. I say it again. Dont't blame all Germans for what the media is saying. Is the American media always reporting YOUR personal opinion?

Have known many Germans as well as Swiss. Been there many times and have to agree with you on that one. Another trait is "sense of humor missing" ....big time.
