Countries on earth each have a national anthem, which is a song that calls for an honour and pride in the country. It is a call to arms in time of conflict.
This honour and pride cannot be mandated, it must come from a genuine feeling.
When the actions of the country, either through its leaders or not stopped by its leaders, cause people to lose honour and pride in their country, it is reasonable for them to display this during the national anthem.
To decry them for doing this, or to shame them or try to have them punished for doing this is shameful.
When the decrying or punishing of them happens in a democratic country, it is even worse, for these are actions of a dictator and democratic countries have in recent history sent their people to war against dictators in order to overthrow them.
A hypocritical leader is not a leader, just a hypocrite.
