Many countries have so-called "military might". But seems that only Americans constantly use it to bomb cities and towns, filled by civilian population. You know, James Cameron pointed out your national military tactic in his latest movie. An up-to-date weaponry i.e. helicopters, guided missiles Vs jungle tribes armed by bows/arrows.

Everyone is proud of his country.

It's not about "stop being American". It's about "be Human". Respect other nations.
