Americans like Germany

Here is an entertaining but not very informative article that shows that Americans like Germany. It's interesting to see what that is based upon

• Germany's role in international politics
• Germany's role in Afghanistan
• Germany promotes peace and democracy in the world
• Germany's taking responsiblity for the Holocaust and WWII
• Good knowledge about Germany

While this seems like a nice result for Germany I would say these are all non or hard to quantify values and hence it's not possible to draw any conclusions out of this. The most interesting information in this article is actually hidden in some comments. Nevertheless it's a good example of how to write about something without saying too much.
