Kosova, Serbia, Pakistan, India, England, Scotland, The USA, ? Cuba?

Answer 4

I don't feel insulted about these things at all.  Why should I?  Such unfortunate happenings are all part of a nation's history, and there's no way you can make them go away by ignoring them.  At the same time one hopes that we might have learned a few things from past mistakes; but if we go by the stuff that's been pushed on us by our present government, it looks like we haven't learned a thing.  I am not a slave of my nation; however, I do love my country and I certainly hope that with this upcoming election we can get back on track and stop wasting time and money on war.  That money could be used to fund health care for every man, woman and child in the US.
