I agree with you. However I find it weird that the Europeans were bitter because we waited to get into the war until we were attacked and now Europeans aren't happy because we are "belligerent and war mongering and will go to war at the drop of a hat." ( so said a foreign exchange student I talked to a few months ago.)
