I think you've come as close as anyone to explaining "Why the World Hates America".

IMHO, Medved missed the whole side of the barn by not pinpointing the source of world's apparent disaffection. A better title would have been "Why the Elites of the World Hate America". The opinion makers and influence peddlers around the world are socialists; propaganda is their stock in trade. They have the ability and desire to mold weak minds, who could just as easily be persuaded to be on our side. The weak minded don't hate America, they hate the image the elites are painting of America. The wannabe world governors are hard at work.

Take our own domestic enemies; the MSM being a prime example. They were socialist sympathizers for much of the 20th century, and the 21st century hasn't seen a lessening of their efforts. Far from it. They continue their attack on America; in fact, seem to have redoubled their efforts. To what purpose???

If he had (correctly) framed it in those terms, his bullet point about "popular culture" would have fit -- naturally, imams and commisars and other grand high supreme exalted pooh-bahs don't like the cultural message of personal autonomy.

Isn't that evident with all the U.N. leaders that cheered Syria's President Basher with a standing applause during his last international speech.

These socialist nitwits were cheering one of the worlds largest sponsors of terrorism.
