So this was meant to be a joke based on Western cultural candid camera shows that got a slap of Middle Eastern reality. I’m really not sure what they were trying to achieve here, but it seem to have backfired in a weird way.

This is one of my favorite renditions of the Star Spangled Banner; we recently celebrated the 200th anniversary of our national anthem in downtown Baltimore.
Having lived in several countries overseas, I am humbled at the nationalism others have in the values within which they live, and am grateful to live in the United States of America. God Bless the USA!
