The War in Iraq has been going on for the last five years. However, how much progress has there been made in the last five years? None. Yes, it is true that the Saddam Hussein was executed, but what happened? Terrorism hasn’t really come to an end and in addition there is no stability in Iraq in terms of the economy and the government. First of all, the war was on terrorism, but it seems as if the war is just targeted toward Iraq. In addition, many nations are beginning to hate the United States since the problems in Iraq have begun to just get worse.
In terms of culture, the war has negatively affected the American culture. Many people are beginning in other nations, such as Iraq, hate the American culture since we are blamed for causing the war. Since our President doesn’t have a positive image, that gives more of a reason for outsiders to hate the American culture.

Well, although I love this country, I can't help but agree with the other countries that are sick of this country's egotism. It seems like whenever there is a global issue, the United States has to jump right in and prove to everyone else that we can handle it without any problems.
But since not all Americans live up to the stereotypical view of American culture that "outsiders" have tagged on our country...I say we figure out a way to defy the negative views that have been placed on us. Because being angry at the rest of the world could only feed to our country's egotism...which would only be hurting the cause.
