What is nationalist about this comment?

The inability of the poster to imagine their own country doing something similar.
If you don't like my current-day example, perhaps you'll like this more relevant-to-the post example: https://www.reddit.com/r/WhitePeopleTwitter/comments/15fka53...

No, no I do not. Not everybody on the internet is from the US you know.

Fair enough. Given the US-centric nature of HN it was an educated guess, but I was wrong.
So which perfect country do you live in?
Oh just give it up already. No country is perfect, got it. There are shades of morality. Got it. Prejudice exists. Got it. Welcome to the realizations most of us attain in our teens.
The sanctimonious, smug, self-righteous tone you adopt is so tiresome and you're not revealing anything anyone here isn't already aware of.

As opposed to the comment, "Yikes. Imagine living in a situation where the government of your own country has as much care for your life as the enemy."
...which you're defending as if it isn't smug, self-righteous, tiresome, and obvious?
Imagine reading this story and finding a nationalist way to feel superior to the people we dropped the bomb on.
You live in the country that denies insulin to its type 1 diabetics if they can't pay, right? What makes you think your government cares about you?
