What you suspect and what you actually know betrays your own bias. When not in Kuwait or Iraq I live in France (Well, Strasbourg) with my French partner and she shares much of my antipathy towards French cyncism, self interest, corrupt politics amateur leadership and xenophobia, especially an irrational hatred of America. As for banter, I suspect you wouldn't recognise anyone with a sense of humour since you tend to take yourself very seriously.
Remember, you are just another contributor to an internet forum, and not one statement, or quotation you make from the Guardian on here will change the world one jot.
Enjoy the catharsis it brings to be able to vent your spleen impotently into the ether and rail against the "warmongers" who are just as "normal" a human being as you but have a different viewpoint, but don't think you'll change the world by it.
