I't makes me shiver the simple certainty that the same ideas and arguments used by many of the previous posters, are the exact same ones rounding Osama's and gang heads. There's nothing wrong about been patriotic and pride, but one must accept the fact that we are not perfect and that mistakes have been done and horrible things have been done against other nations.
Many talk about religious fanatism as one of the main causes for terrorism and violence in the world, but they fail to see that patriotic fanatism is doing as much harm if not more than the first. I just wish with all my heart that world leaders, the ones that have our lives in their hands, realize that this is not a pissing contest. May God protect us all.
