What does the world think when they see an American city in flames?

What does the world think when they see an unarmed black man shot in the back from 30 feet away? Do they view America as a free and fair society?

Of course not.

America is actually a worldwide laughingstock. We're so concerned about what goes on in other countries, yet we can't even take care of ourselves here at home.

Is it any wonder the folks in Iraq fought back against the US invasion? Would you want this kind of clusterfuck imposed on you?

There's only one word that comes to mind when we talk about spreading American values Middle East.

Chutzpah.
