Speaking English

I'm watching the news and they are talking about things that have happened over the past year. They are interviewing a teenager in Iraq and he speaks perfect english.

If the people of these foreign countries hate the US so much, then why do they learn our language.


I've seen this elsewhere also but that story made me wonder about it.

English our language? AHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!

Oh the ignorance of this country 🙁

EDIT: Mosh beat me to it, but most Iraqis are thankful for what the U.S. has done.

the media just shows us the radicals who do.

And the same statement applies to them, too?
 
When did English become an American only language?
OP, you are a moron.

And why do you asume that all Iraqi's hate the US? Maybe you can generalize a little more.

American English IS the official language of the United States.
 
Yes, it is also the official language of other countries (Canada, Britain, etc).

EDIT: It is also considered the language of commerce.

I take it that you have never travelled outside the US, much less your trailer park, yes?

English is the second language of choice among almost all countries. Speak to a native-born person from Germany, Finland, or the Netherlands and you'll find their English is better than most Americans'. Did you know that in India and China the children start learning English around 5 or 6?

I think a better question would be: Do you (the OP) speak a second language at all? Why does an Iraqi teen speak English so well when most Americans are unable (or simply do not care) to learn a second language?
