It is not just Arab governments. A January 2005 Pew study on global opinion, based on that groups polling in recent years in 44 countries, reported that the rest of the world has become deeply suspicious of U.S. motives and openly skeptical about its word. It observed that Anti-Americanism is deeper and broader now than at any time in modern history. It is most acute in the Muslim world but it spans the globe--from Europe to Asia, from South America to Africa. This includes most countries that have been close U.S. allies for over 50 years.

The Pew survey found that this new hardening of attitudes amounts to something much larger than a thumbs down on the current occupant of the White House. Pew reported that at the heart of the decline in world opinion about America is the perception that the United States acts without taking into account the interests of other nations. A December 2004 public opinion poll in 23 countries found that in 20 of these countries a majority of citizens believed it would be better for Europe to become more influential than the U.S. in world affairs.

Even the much vaunted coalition of the willing that the Bush administration claimed to have built in 2003 for the invasion of Iraq has all but collapsed. Thirteen countries have already withdrawn their forces. Italy, Poland, and Ukraine have all recently announced they will pull their troops out; these are the fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-largest contingents of foreign troops there. The countries that will soon be left, apart from U.S. and UK, are Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, El Salvador, Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Mongolia, Romania, Slovakia, South Korea, Japan, Denmark, and Australia.

PM......Do you agree with the 20?

PM.....I wonder why none of these countries never rose to become a super power?

You need to ask yourself these 2 questions:

1. Should the US start pulling out of Iraq tommorow?

2. If the US does decide to abandon it's mission in Iraq, what will be the consequences?

Thank the Lord for the nations that have stood by our side during this terrible time!

Thanks for the list!

These are not American colonies, but independent countries.As independent countries decide by themselves which way to vote, what is surprising about that. As far as the aid issue goes, these are, by and large, regimes that, however they vote at the UN, have quite a cosy relationship with the US government, this is one of the reasons they receive aid. Bus, after all does not dole out vast sums of dosh to Iran, Cuba etc.

On the issue of India, how on earth does that get on your list of Arab or Islamic countries. It has many native languages, but Arabic is not one of them; as to the muslim population well in numerical terms there may be quite a lot of them but there are many more times more Hindus, many of them fundamentalists and very anti-muslim.

Out of curiosity, I've been having a quick google, and I can't find any evidence that the US is providing any Aid to Syria. If they aren't receiving aid, why stick them on your list. If they are well it's surprising and would it would be interesting to see the facts.

Further proof that we just need to get the U.S. out of the UN and get the UN out of the U.S. !

But it is good to keep your enemy where you can see/hear him..... I would guess the UN building speaks volumes to us every day.
