You know, I've never understood how you can be proud over something that you had absolutely nothing to do with.
I'm not proud to be a Jew, nor am i proud to be an Englishman, why would i be, i just happened to be born in England to a Jewish mother.
I am proud over the things i have accomplished though and i think that those who need to feel pride in heritage or nationality are those who have never accomplished anything they can be proud of.
Why not? you can be proud of your parents or siblings when they do something good or great, even if being born in that family was not your choice. Similarly if my country does good things, progresses, makes itself noticeable by making positive contributors, that makes me proud.
