What the US public opinion is and what the US government does are two different things. Americans are hilariously self-delusional in that regard. Just compare the civilian death tolls between the first two years of the invasion of Iraq and the first two years of the invasion of Ukraine.

Yes, Germans are crazy regarding working hours, at my last job at an engineering shop many co-workers started at 6 am, some even at 5(!), making "Feierabend" at around 2 pm. Nothing unusual.
