The findings of the National Geographic-Roper Survey 2006, conducted by the
National Geographic Society, were released on May 1. The survey explored the
Geographic Literacy among young Americans (age 18-24).

Key Findings:


a.. 63% percent of Americans aged 18 to 24 failed to correctly locate Iraq
on a map of the Middle East.


a.. 70% could not find Iran or Israel.


a.. 90% couldn't find Afghanistan on a map of Asia.


a.. 54% were unaware that Sudan is a country in Africa.


a.. 48% of young Americans believe the majority population in India is
Muslim.


a.. Though they were aware of the devastation caused to Indonesia by tsunami
in Dec'04, Three-quarters of respondents failed to find that country on a
map. And three-quarters were unaware that a majority of Indonesia's
population is Muslim, making it the largest Muslim country in the world.


a.. Fewer than 20% young Americans own a world map.


a.. Fewer than 30% think it's absolutely necessary to know where countries
in the news are located.


a.. Only 14% believe speaking another language fluently is a necessary
skill.

The geographic knowledge about US itself was just as much dismal:


a.. Half could not find New York State on a map of the United States.


a.. A third of the respondents could not find Louisiana, and 48 percent
couldn't locate Mississippi on a map of the United States, even though
Hurricane Katrina put these southeastern states in the spotlight in 2005.


a.. Told they could escape an approaching hurricane by evacuating to the
northwest, only two-thirds could indicate which way northwest is on a map.

...Which reminds one of the "foreign affairs quiz" to which George W Bush
was subjected to during his campaign during 1999. The following is the
transcript of Q&A between reporter Andy Hiller, and the then-presidential
candidate, George W Bush:

Hiller asked: "Can you name the president of Chechnya?"

"No, can you?" Bush replied.

"Can you name the president of Taiwan?" Hiller asked.

"Yeah, Lee,'" responded Bush, referring to Taiwanese President Lee Teng-hui.

"Can you name the general who is in charge of Pakistan?" asked Hiller,
inquiring about Gen. Pervaiz Musharraf, who took over last month in a
military coup.

"Wait, wait, is this 50 questions?" replied Bush.

Hiller replied: "No, it's four questions of four leaders in four hot spots."

Bush said: "The new Pakistani general, he's just been elected - not elected,
this guy took over office. It appears this guy is going to bring stability
to the country and I think that's good news for the subcontinent."

Hiller persisted, saying "Can you name him?"

Bush said: "General. I can name the general. General."

"And the prime minister of India?" asked Hiller, inquiring about a man who
was recently re-elected and who last year tested a nuclear bomb.

Bush said: "The new prime minister of India is - no."

At that point, Bush responded in kind to Hiller.

"Can you name the foreign minister of Mexico?" asked the governor, whose
home state borders the Central American nation.

The reporter replied, "No sir, but I would say to that, I'm not running for
president."

The Roper Survey perhaps explains why he got elected.

To understand the implications for those not living in US, of this chemistry
between the Leader and the Led, one must watch these two video-clips
(humorous but also disturbing):

Alexander Seredin has the following delusions (among many others):

-- The Arabs "invented printing"[sic].

-- Stalin was not calling the shots in the Soviet Union from
1929-1953.

-- Genghis Khan "conquered Europe"[sic].

-- There are no ancient inscriptions containing the word "Israel".

-- There were less than 4,000,000 Jews in Europe in 1938.

-- When the allies were still bogged down fighting in Normandy after
D-Day, the Soviets were taking the outskirts of Berlin.

etc. etc. etc. ad nauseam magnam. What a maroon!

I did not say Arabs invented it, they brought it to Europe and taught
Europeans how to print books. Before islamic Spain there were no mass
printed books in Europe! Do you know of any?

That is is right!

First Ukrainian Front, general Tolbukhin, took Budapest at the time of
invasion, and Berlin was a short drive from the main Russian force at the
time of the invasison so called Second Front

What percentage of Arabs in the West Bank and Gaza Strip can find
Israel on a map? Zero?

So then ZioNazis inserted references to Israel in the King James
Bible?

Better that he vent on usenet. He's only one psychotic episode away from
spending the rest of his life getting his picture taken at Gitmo.

If he behaves, maybe they'll let him run the Gitmo souvenir shop?
