I don't like the love of country when it comes to fighting other nations. That sort of love can easily turn to hatred of those who don't belong to the tribe.

I agree with you  [two] too. there is nothing worse than sticking together  like glue to the peeps from ones own country so o speak just because they are from the same place as yourself!! when you know that if they are in the wrong, why side with them while knowing that the argument or similar is  correct from the other side of the fence and not from your own [at the time]  united we stand ... birds of a feather... but there is good and bad in everyone regardless of where they came from.. x  also thank you all for helping me around the lost inbox thing ame jig.. that i wrote in about.. I did say t u  but cannot see where the reply went now though.. hmmn  from a dizzy one ::)
