This movie made my think of nationalism in a new and different way. I always thought of nationalism as being proud or your country and being proud to be a citizen of that country. Of course this would often cause rivalries with other countries, but after viewing this movie I see that it can be used as a weapon of war. The movie made me feel that nationalism should sometimes not be as powerful as it is. It is good to have national pride, but not to the point were you hate everyone else. I felt very sad for the Israel team that were killed, especially because they committed no crime. I also was mad at the terrorist, but mostly I felt pity for them. They thought they were doing a justice by committing those acts. This was they way they felt Palestinians should act and that this was a way to viewed as national heroes.
