I don't.
1) This forum is very, very boring at the moment so I hardly doubt it could be made more tedious
2) Bradley has the right to post what he likes (Within reason), and just because you don't agree with it doesn't mean he shouldn't bother. This isn't some sort of elitist website you know. If you don't like his posts, ignore him. Simple.

thank you. I dont know why others have to get personal. I have been to America quite a few times and have American relatives and friends, and I can tell you they are as a nation very ignorant of world events and world history. You rarely get any world news out there unless it involves Americans abroad.

My American friends and family always say the biggest thing when they are over here is how they are able to hear about whats going on in the world. It has improved with BBC World on cable out there, but the vast majority of Americans, especially outside of the major cities, still have no grasp of world events or world history and thats in the main because they are educated to believe that Americans did everything and won both wars as a favour for us, rather than in both cases being dragged into a war they didnt want to help out in. They believe it was America and the others that beat Germany, rather than the Allies including America for the last half that won. And thats why they have the attitude they have.
