They expect gratitude as a right.

I have seen the unabashed gratitude of people in the ME when it was offered for real human efforts. They exude gratitude... and many times we don't deserve it. Most of the time it's ignored because it's not politically correct for American tastes.

I love good, great, honest, gracious, kind, loving human beings. Period.

Screw the people who claim it as an inalienable right to be worshipped by the world.

We give because there is need. That's all!
