wouldn't you?
Hehehe... a wicked sense of humour you have! :twisted:

Well... in all fairness, nationalism is not an exclusively 'Nazi' concept. The Nazis perverted nationalism. When I preclude the term with 'healthy', I mean an unperverted nationalism - i.e. a sense of promoting one's own nation's interests without the obvious despicable attachments of racism, hatred and genocidal thoughts.
