it isn't that far off, the american education system does a horrible job of not teaching young americans about the world around them.
most cannot even point out the 50 states, nevermind find iraq on the map.
yes it is a generalization and not true of the population as a whole, but i have seen it first hand. Would be nice if they taught world geography and history in high school like many other places do.
