We seem to be keen on watching people and waiting for them to love this country less than we do so we can point it out and feel like heroes...or some such.

Okey Dokey, but also in your limited experience with foreigners do they understand that standing and rendering honors while their Nation's anthem is showing respect and choosing not to do so is a sign of not giving respect (aka disrespect)?
