Hi, FRANK SCHEIDT! How are you?   
   on Monday, 19 of March, I read your message to ALEXANDER KORYAGIN   
   about "Re: Writing about the first amendment"   
      
    ak>>>>>> Not a single nation on this planet has the right to built a   
    ak>>>>>> state for one nation only, on the territory populated by other   
    ak>>>>>> nations.   
      
    ak>>>> state. There is no nationalistic state on this planet accept   
    ak>>>> Israel.   
    FS>>> Deep-down every state, if it wants to survive, is nationalistic.   
    FS>>> In fact here's the definition of "nationalism": 1. Devotion to   
    FS>>> the interests or culture of one's nation.   
      
      
    ak>> nationality must have equal rights. We live in the 21-st century.   
    ak>> The Scotch are going to proclaim their independence, but surely   
    ak>> they will not proclime their nation dominant, and Englishmen as a   
    ak>> second grade nation, incapacitated from voting.   
      
    FS> You made an unfortunate choice when you selected Scotland to   
    FS> support your thesis! The Scots would gladly dominate the English if   
    FS> they could ...   
      
   Do you think they are going to discriminate the local English after   
   Scotland's getting independence? Surely not. They just want to rule the   
   country themselves and all people of Scotland will be equal citizens.   
      
    FS>>> 2. The belief that nations will benefit from acting independently   
    FS>>> rather than collectively, emphasizing national rather than   
    FS>>> international goals. 3. Aspirations for national independence in   
    FS>>> a country under foreign domination.   
      
    ak>> As an example we can take India and its long fight for   
    ak>> independence. But again - India consists of many nationalities. An   
    ak>> Indian is a rather territorial term. So is in Israel. People who   
    ak>> populate the territory can be called Israeli, but they are Jews,   
    ak>> Arabs, etc.   
      
    FS> "Nationalism" has nothing to do with the nationalities of the   
    FS> nation's population. A nationalist Indian can be one of any of   
    FS> several possible groups, Hindu, Sikh, etc.   
      
   They are all equal Indian citizens. That is the main thing. They   
   together are building the great India. It would be a dangerous nonsense   
   to build a nationalistic Hindu state unless they want to have hatred,   
   terror, rivers of blood.   
      
   [...]   
   Bye FRANK!
