This was a very interesting video to watch. I have heard about this event before but never really understood what had happened and never really thought about it relating to nationalism. But now that i have watched the video thinking about the ideas of nationalism it is scary. I think that its dangerous when you mix nationalism and religion. Two things that people are so passionate about and they seem to think that these horrible things they are doing is helping their country and encourage it. I couldn't believe that the terrorists were so proud of what they had done and had absolutely no regret about it. It really opened my eyes on what nationalism can consist of, I never thought it would consist of kidnapping and eventually killing other Innocent people. But in the end it shows what people are willing to do for their country if they think it helps their cause.
