In the US there are laws in force saying how the US flag should be flown, and laws against its desecration, and mind you, the US has no state religion and has separation of church and state, so this is not based on any pre-existing religious sentiments.

Nationalism is it's own thing; many people, myself included, are uncomfortable with it, not only in Israel, and especially here given the state (small 's') of Israel today. I'll be with good friends, good food, and good music, sans flags, in the desert I love, laying as low as possible til this week is over. My heart, however, will be with all parents who have lost children to this conflict tomorrow, and even though the day is for Israelis, my heart will be with ALL parents everywhere who have lost children to this conflict.
