People here live in luxury and thus any country that doesn't gets the sympathetic "oh those poor people" bull****. It's extremely condescending. A soldier from this country who grew up, corn fed, in Kansas of course will be shocked and assaulted by the way people live or survive abroad. Some tolerate it. Some don't. I never felt the obligation to make the situation sound better than it is, but it should always be taken in perspective. But I'm sure that some of you will disagree, because of course you know better, and you've lived outside this country, and you've seen combat, or you have a Master's degree in basketweaving. You have people who hate Americans for breaking the sovereignty of the country and you had the rest of the populace who preferred the Americans
