the politicians ----- who not only practice nationalism religiously in guise of patriotism, but, also socially and emotionally promote and enforce it, by successfully sowing paranoia, fear and insecurity among general population, that in reality leads public to believe that there is always a monster out there to hurt them
it is definitely true in terms of pakistan's history. please read history. the vultures from the neighbourhood dont take long to jump in search of prey. so yes, pakistanis need to beware every single waking / sleeping moment. remember 1965 when indian tanks entered pakistani territory during the middle of the night when pakistani qaum was sleeping unaware of evil intention of the neighbour fulfilling their dream of merging pakistan back together with them? and when the common people living close to the borders woke up and lied in front of them with bombs tied up around their bodies in order to stop those tanks from going further inside the territory? i am not sure if you even know it. this is not from a fiction story book but something pakistanis have already experienced from its' 'neighbours'. how can you expect people of living in a country with such threats from neighbour do not live like the monster can land any time to hurt them?
.......a classic instance would be a quote by Henry Kissinger in early 70s “Control oil and you control nations; control food and you control people.” pretty sick isn't it?
You're quoting a satanist. If you wish to know of any 'nobel' examples of patriotism, why quote or believe in a satanist belief?
