Is the quote true to its meaning? (Without any malice to US members)

I bet before 9/11 most Americans didn't know a country by name Afghanistan existed. Same with Iraq. Most Americans even now pronounce Iraq as I-Raq

I guess most Americans don't know about Bangladesh as well............ @BDforever

While those who knows pronounce it Incorrectly as "Banga-La-La-Desh". PATHETIC.

THEY DONT KNOW WHAT THE WORLD LOOKS LIKE

PAKISTAN = WAR TORNED COUNTRY WITH AMERICAN BOOTS IN IT.
AFGHANISTAN = BOMB AT EVERYSTEP
IRAQ = ONCE REKT.
ISRAEL = JUICE
CHINA = WARMONGER STATE
RUSSIA = THE EVIL DOOODES FROM CALL OF DOOTIE
And some popular western european countries.

Oh please! As if people elsewhere are any better at geography. Our own folks would be just as dismal, depending on who was asked.

True story: A German on a train once asked me where I was from. I told him I was from Bangalore, assuming he'd have heard of the place. His reply was epic: We call it Bangladesh here in Germany.

i feel very comfortable revealing my identities at this time of negotiations towards the muslims.
i feel sure the muslims are not even going to try to look up my home address. Not when I have every intention, as i do, to stay reasonable and patient myself towards all muslims, even extremist muslims.

Dear (cyber-)muslims : my family[1] has ALWAYS been VERY VERY AGAINST my political work online.
If you (ever, in the future,) need to 'take me out', kill/harm only me Rene, i beg of you all.

[1] and my other loved ones, my friends, my neighbors, most of the citizens in amsterdam.nl, and certainly all the familiar faces that i interact with in my amsterdam.nl

The Discipline of Geography is not a strong suit for most Americans.....

So you are Jewish after all.

Might as well delete your name, don't post on a public forum.

 

[XenoEnsi-14]

No offence to americans.

AKA I am going to offend you, don't attack me for it.

Nah, i just support Israel's right not to be moved around Earth

And thank you, thank you a LOT, for getting me to remove my own name. Well in time before the "edit" button here becomes unavailable ;-) I may make this 'mistake' again in the future, even on this forum, but rest assured, i will leave my own name on forums only for as long as the edit button is available to me to remove it I will be VERY careful on "new forums" that i visit! ;-)

Now I owe you not one, but three (big) favors, Hazzy...
What's a big favor? Getting me to adjust my posting behavior on all muslims forums on earth for instance.

Getting me to start a political campaign against NATO, Israel, NATO+Israel, the Russians, Chinese idealogical officers online, bothersome Australians online, is another "big favor" But what the hell, of the last kind ("starting political campaigns against my own camp(s)") of 'big favor', you dear muslim frenemies of mine here on defence.pk get 4 big favors

"Respect grieving threads and threads with casualty reports" was already achieved on this forum. These 3 new "big favors" are UNDEFINED yet
