And It seems that is a very common point of view in America. A couple of friends in Bosnia and Kosovo have noticed the same attitude.

Please stop assuming that what a small group says is the opinion of the large majority. Thank you
The United States is off on it's own, Bush rushed off so not everyone can expect support from everyone. The reasons are still somewhat fuzzy. Most people over here aren't shocked we're the only ones over there. Most don't feel all of Europe should automatically jump in because we played a very large part in winning World War II.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
