I think it's important to distinguish between a country's rulers and its people. One cannot rightly judge a country in isolation. Countries consist of too many heterogeneous people. Neither can one speak against any particular race, but there are definitely traditions and beliefs that persist from generation to generation, and mostly through religion.
"Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment." Joh 7:24. We cannot put a label on a nation, but we can often discern different spirits even if we are not looking at it spiritually.
There are many religious spirits in each of the religions of the world and it manifests itself in human behaviour that causes division in their kingdom. Without any exceptions these spirits are evil spirits. There are good spirits as well. The good spirits however are all from the same substance: the Spirit of the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Spirits tend to "come with the territory," and you have undoubtedly felt the prevailing attitude of people in different areas.
The Christian Spirit is severely infiltrated by the spirit of the False Prophet. He for instance demands respect, and when the music plays he is worshipped. He pompously decrees his bulls to pronounce his authority. His is Legion that was sent into the 2000 swine, whence the many Christian denominations and the 2000 years of darkness.
Another one is prevalent in Judaism. It looks down on society and in its uncontrollable need for ultimate control, infiltrates the nation state, and tries to influence and manipulate world leaders to change laws to suit itself. It's quite noticeable when it hypocritically proposes ostentatious benevolent laws to address problems that it created in the first place.
When you say, "I hate those Philistines," you must realise that the spirit in you collides with the spirit that's in them. Now if the spirit that's in them makes them behaves like barbarians, the spirit in you wants to react with indignation.
I hate both these spirits and I feel really pissed off. I'll get to you Mozzies later sonnamabietses.
