Nationalism, The Flag and Jehovah Witnesses

It seems few churches have every last thing in order but the JWs seem to have some things correct that other churches reel back from. Although I consider them in serious error where the deity of Jesus Christ is concerned, I consider them correct where the flag and nationalism is concerned. The church, that is, the Kingdom of God should be "in nations but not "of nations". That is to say they should not be too attached to the interests of any nation to the point of compromising any biblical teachings for the interests of a nation. God's kingdom covers the earth and the church should see itself in this light, not a nationalistic one. The church should lead the way and attempt to teach the nation and all nations to walk in the ways of God. This is the purity of Christ's church. Nationalistic fervor is more of a misleading spirit than anything else.
I remember the Sunday after the U.S. invaded Iraq, me and my wife walked in to a church to see a giant U.S. flag stretched across the stage much like the one in the movie, "Patton". It was a strange feeling that Sunday as some folks came down the aisle waving the flag and as soon as the congregation was cognizant of the carried flags presence the entire congregation jumped to it's feet in a kind of sudden jerked response that had never been given to God's business, whether prayer or song, and when prayer did come up it was only for Americans or the soldiers without mention of innocent Iraqi's or even it's women & children who would be likely killed by bombing.
Is the nation really first in our lives or is God? All I can say is; we better get it right and it better start showing.
Playing Ray Boltz's "Pledge Allegiance to the Lamb" now and then through the church sound system would probably help keep these things in perspective.
