RE: "Great Day for Peace" for US Embassy Opening as 43 Palestinians Killed and 2200 Injured
it is so sad to see, and no real solution on the horizon. Nationalism is a cancer that leads to the violent suppression of the perceived enemies. But we are all unique and ultimately share a common fate.
Nationalism has it's pros and cons. One pro is that i's a barrier to globalization and one world governance and centralized control. EU vs nations is a good example of how it goes awry.
yeah i guess that is one advantage of nationalism. The right does oppose one-world gov while many of the left quite like the idea. Good that there are enough right wingers protecting us from this horror.
But it does not need nationalism for that. Nations should be broken down to the regional level and then ultimately to the individual. One world-gov is the extreme of maximum centralisation, anarchy is maximal decentralisation and national states sit inbetween, still leaning quite for to centralisation.
