It's confounding and bewildering to see ANZAC elevated as a founding moment...what can possibly be drawn from it in this context? Our unquestioning allegiance to militancy? Our lack of courage to forge a better way? Our willingness to offer up young men as martyrs?

Great questions Patrick. Thanks for sharing them here.
With such a skewed sense of 'nation' and an impoverished reading of history, it is no wonder nationalism is on the rise.
