> what's a few dead bodies and rotting corpses?

'Few' or thousands or may be millions, who knows? Is there some kind of data or statistical study to help here?

Calling that there is filth elsewhere too isn't really a great argument to support your shrug. It is understandable though that it hurts to see one's homeland in poor light. It's a good emotion to have - love your land - should be used to emphasize and drive clean up.
