The point is that where you see &quot;the world&#x27;s superpower&quot; everyone else (who is not American) sees &quot;a brutal dictatorship&quot;.<p>There&#x27;s no other way to describe a political entity that will bomb your village to kill one man it suspects may be somehow involved in an insurgency against its military. Not to mention all the other brutal stuff the US does.<p>I&#x27;m saying: you don&#x27;t like dictatorships. Great, but your country is the world&#x27;s own brutal dictator. It could be much worse, OK, but it could also be a lot better, if your country didn&#x27;t &quot;throw its weight around&quot;. Or its bombs. Or its army etc.<p>(Again, that is _if_ you&#x27;re American, which I don&#x27;t know).
