>I don't know the word "fubar" but I understand what you mean.

I put a footnote, but here it goes: fubar means either "fouled up beyond all recognition", or "fouled up beyond all repair". (In the original, a slightly different word was used instead of "fouled".)

I am just waiting to see signs "down with the USA" in the street of Bolivia :).

Indeed, there are those kinds of protests, too.

While the U.S. has done quite an effort to make itself unpopular, Bolivia - and most countries of the World - have lots of internal problems, so that, assuming a hypothetical situation that the U.S. disappears, or there is no contact, the problems will persist.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
