Tadiyalehu,
አመሰግናለሁ ሰለ ኢትዮጵያዊነቴ ስለአወክልኝ።
እስክ በፈረንጆቹ ቋወንቋ ትንሽ ልመልስ፣ ፈጠን ማለት እንድችል።
It is just universal to defend one's own country, whether your country fulfilled all of your wishes and aspirations or not. It is possible to lack something, just like your parents may also fail to fulfill all of your wishes as their child. But there is no alternative to both. So, we have to defend them, in order to demand more from them (I mean a country and parents).
A citizen, who goes out and declare to the rest of the world that he/she is here to dismantle one's own country might have made himself a laughing stock infront of the rest of the world.
You keep your country and demand more from it, you don't dismantle your own home and expect to have something better, unless the person is mad.
We can agree or disagree but we shouldn't negotiate on anything that is to compromise the very existence of our common home, our country. So, defending one's own country is a duty of a respectable citizen in my view.
Cheers!
