Jews and Arabs are 'nations'? Actually, none of those are nations. Do you want our opinions on ethnoreligious groups, nationalities, or countries?

It's not too good, I admit. I tend to distrust foreigners, especially Eastern Europeans. Not, that I’m that fond of Western Europeans either, if they’re not British. I like Americans, Australians, Kiwis and the odd Canadian; Israel is good and the Arabs are bad. Now Asians, I kinda like them, as long as they're not Muslim.
I'm not trying to be provocative, it's just my mind set.

Well I'm from South America, and I don't get around these nationalities but I'll guess the only Positive one would be with the Americans and the rest would be Neutral

Oh I like your idea Nakhili. Let me try, the first word that comes to mind:
I differentiate between nations and their governments. I pretty much dislike Sudan and China's gvts. I respect and admire the Nordic nations, Switzerland, Australia and France.
As to culture, I enjoy Americana, as I have been bombarded with it all my life and come to enjoy its humor, music, food, sports and movies (although intelectually, I veer toward the European countries and value traditional cultures, especially India's).
