I think that many Americans wrongly believe that they are 'god's gift' to the world and they will be the saviour of western civilisation - (even for those who don't want or need 'saving'.)
This sanctimous holier than thou attitude is not condusive to popularity
O.K. then. Don't bother calling us the next time there's trouble on that side of the pond. We'll just sit here and watch Europe circle the drain. Well, it's doing that anyway. A civilization that isn't prepared to make a stand to save itself isn't worth saving.
