The concept "anti-American" is an interesting one. The counterpart is 
used only in totalitarian states or military dictatorships. Thus, in the 
old Soviet Union, dissidents were condemned as "anti-Soviet." That's a 
natural usage among people with deeply rooted totalitarian instincts, 
which identify state policy with the society, the people, the culture. 
In contrast, people with even the slightest concept of democracy treat 
such notions with ridicule and contempt. Suppose someone in Italy who 
criticizes Italian state policy were condemned as "anti-Italian." It 
would be regarded as too ridiculous even to merit laughter. Maybe under 
Mussolini, but surely not otherwise.
