Well, that's something I've always respected of the USA, the ease you have to criticize your own contry and people, and even making movies or jokes at it. Here people don't have such a mentality, and some things are "untouchable". I hope that you never change. I agree that to be really the "land of free" everyone should be entitled to and respected while expressing his/her opinion.

Going back to the anthem, I wish I could see what's actually Mr Haimovitz point. It's not I dislike the music, nor that I find it irrespectful, but I'd like to "understand" what does he mean with this version, apart from the obvious criticism to some political circumstances.

Regards.
