[Culturechat] 2/29/03 WSJ: Tourists Get a Euro-Trashing

[WesTexas@aol.com]

The front page of the Personal Journal section of the WSJ has an article 
about some anecdotal accounts of anti-American feelings in Europe.  The final 
comment by an American tourist in France was pretty funny--"of course, if 
someone said something anti-American in French, we wouldn't be able to 
understand it anyway."

To the extent that anti-American feelings are a problem, I would assume that 
it is worst in Germany and France.  This would probably be a great time to 
visit the Eastern European countries that have been such strong supporters of 
the U.S., in addition to Western European countries like Britain, Spain and 
Italy.
