I agree with Chabib - it's very easy to relativise the situation in your own country - for instance, I can easily say, "Well, at least Britain isn't as bad as America"...There are pros and cons to both, of course, but I think it's important that patriotism isn't blindly jingoistic but actually a defence of what is good about your country. It's all to easy to look at the various wars and famine all over the world and pick up a 'at least it's not me' mentality, but this is just lying down and taking it, which is the most apathetic and apolitical thing you can do.

*Edit - didn't see the other two pages... the left is a reactionary shambles... yes.
