I don't think it's that hard to write a riff like that.
I like the Stripes, but they have much better material. I mean the whole song consists of that riff, even the damn solo is just a version of the riff, and its like theres a climax coming but it never comes.
I can appreciate simple melodies, Beethoven did. But Seven Nation Army is as basic as it can possibly get. It's literally something anyone could play on the spot without any practice.
