Sadly, yes. It's amazing the extent to which humans show their fundamentally animal nature. We may be able to philosophize, create transcendent art, and build nanotechnology...but when it comes to our fears and getting along with others, we're just scared little chickens and ducks.
Nope not at all, i don't know how it is where you come from,but in my world we all seem to get on most of the time... most of us are sane, reasonable and reasoning and treat others as we would wish to be treated.. makes for a much better world.. \i seriously hope things aren't quite as bad as you are suggesting where you are.
In the sense that it takes an outside threat to draw a nation, or a region, or people/nations with common enemies together...yes. But the act of coming together is itself an act of division among people, as we only join forces with some for the purpose of fighting others.
