I guess it's sort of second nature to assume that though, since the USA is always getting raped up the asses by people who think their better, just because they assume that all Americans think they're the best. Fact is, most of us... at least the down to earth ones, don't. As a child, you're generally always brought up to believe that your country is the best, but not all of us are so ignorant as to let that cloud our view of the world once we get older.
Thanks for the post Johnny Look, I got goosebumps seeing those pictures. You are completely right.
"As a child, you're generally always brought up to believe that your country is the best"
No, actually, I never was. I was taught about poverty stricken countries at school, made to feel fortunate about my own, but I was certainly never brainwashed into believing my country was the best, there's no way that's true.
ALSO
I didn't make this topic to discuss who has the best country, I made it because I was shocked at what had happened, so please get back on topic.

This guy has it right. Our troops did nothing wrong, in fact, let's send them a reward. IRAQI puppies are the ENEMY!
Also, the pictures of Yanks touching Iraqi children are irrelevant.
Yea same here. The only country I heard about being great was where my mums side of the family originates from, but then it was probably more a "don't forget your roots!" kinda thing. From a young age we were taught about poverty stricken places. Collecting stamps, food, whatever the thing was.
And yea. Anyone can pose for a pic when the cameras are turned on. I don't doubt there are good soldiers though. Those trained killing machines.
It'll depend how sadly patriotic your country is, as to how you are. If you sing the Australian anthem every lunchtime your whole life, you're going to be used to that.
England isn't very patriotic at all, really. America is...
I've seen worse. There was a kid who cut the genetials off a cat. The cat jumped around a lot, spraying blood all over the place. That is evil
But really, you can't stereotype the whole army based on a few pictures and videos. There are a bunch of evil people there and there are those who thought that they were making a difference (in a good way).
I think they were just a bit indifferent to death after all the shooting and killing. I heard that the first kill is the hardest.

We sing the Malaysian anthem at school every morning. Sometimes in the evening too. Doesn't make the slightest difference in patriotism. Good thing they didn't go through with putting the anthem in cinemas as well. Especially since the Censorship Board stopped working since 300 came out.

I don't think we've ever sang the British national anthem. Or pledged allegiance or out like that. Le shrug.
Speaking of being bad to cats. On of my girlfriends cats didn't get on with their neighbour so he hit it with a shovel. One got hit by a car too. They're all okay just a bit "broken". Poor things.
If I ever saw anyone do what Muz said, I actually WOULD find out who they are and beat them to hell. I HATE that sort of thing... that's just pure evil to the nth degree.
That puppy was probably a threat to peace! I mean, loogit them things! They stare with them big ol' eyes... Yip helplessly! Totter around on the ground! God damn it, how dare they!
Disgusting! Look at it lick with malice! I support the US Troops completely in this issue. Clearly, the dog was a threat.
Fine Garbage since 2003.
