Your patriotism is admirable, indeed the American sense of identity and her citizens faith in her ideologies and power are aspects of your culture that I respect greatly and envy to a point. I would, however, encourage you to venture away from the naive notion that Europe is "weak" simply because it isn't quick to thrust a gun into the face of any who oppose it. Such talk wanders dangerously close to self-righteous rhetoric territory, and I'd rather not have to read any of that.
