tricky question...

if your country is at war with some other country but you know your country is wrong and they're right.. whom would you support?
would you support your country?
will it affect your patriotism?
will you become anti-national if you don't?

what is patriotism?
is it also supporting illegal activities your government does.. or
is it criticizing your government if its wrong and stopping your country from going wrong direction and wanting your country to become a better place to live

In the US (where I live) the First Amendment of our Constitution is suppose to allow public protest if we disagree with what our government is doing, eg. participating in an unjust war. That’s what anti-war protests, such as those against Vietnam, The Gulf War and Iraq, have been about. Some people have considered those protests “unpatriotic”. My personal definition of patriotism is wanting what’s best for one’s country, so often the protesters have been [b]very[/b] patriotic.
