[QUOTE="Sheikh Yerbouti, post: 769827, member: 9093"] Completely agree there, and that's precisely why we DON'T need to shout about it from the rooftops. It's pointless and it's vulgar. It could be argued that many of these nations who beat the drum so tiresomely about nationality (Americans & Aussies to name but two) do so really out of an inherent sense of insecurity. Apart from the colour of their passports, most Americans & Aussies who bang on about patriotism have absolutely no reason whatsoever for doing so. In fact they DON'T HAVE a national identity because 300 years ago their "nations" didn't even exist. All this nauseating "God Bless America" nonsense is really just thinly veiled over-compensating for a complete lack of any national heritage or history at all. Or more accurately, the history they do have is really something they should be deeply ashamed of. I'm with Ed. One world, one nation. We are all global citizens. As he so eloquently put it we are all just citizens of the universe with different coloured passports. :thumbsup: [/QUOTE]
