14. DU is known for many things.
You are correct.

It's so much easier to criticize my own government.

You finished with "If some are incapable of seperating criticism of a country's government from criticism of a country's people that is thier problem to work out." If only that was true, but it's not.

The populations of hated countries often bear the brunt of their governments' policies.

I have an emotional tie to Israel; but the US is my country.

To both countries: Change them or lose them.

However, so many powerful people can hurt Israel and I don't have the same worry for Superpower USA.
