hehehe I was prepared to get some attack. Sorry if I offended some americans, but as I stated, not all americans are dumb which I guess is the majority (that is not dumb), but just it´s something serious to have such a big amount of dumbness in a very developed country. ýt just tells that there´s something wrong in th system.

Well... I think that you have a point about the low level of education in a very developed country. This is quite right. However, your numbers about majority or minority or that there are "so many" people who are ´dumb´ here is quite wrong. Education and ´dumbness´ are two different things, and especially that you based your reasoning on the most stupid video on youtube is rather disappointing.

You call that an attack???  Are you so thin skinned? 

Clearly you were baiting, sorry you didn´t quite get the response you were so prepared for!!

You don´t know I´m not British?

Well: Quod erat demonstrandum as my math teacher said....

BTW This one is fun too:

You are so well educated Trudy... you speak latin and you can find dumb videos on youtube!

I think what is wrong with the Americans is not ignorance but arrogance. Just listen to that man who says "everybody knows that" after saying yasser arafat is the leader of al qaida. This video in fact is not funny at all.

I agree with this a little more... however, when a Turk says "happy is the one who can call himself a Turk"... is pretty arrogant don´t you think.

However... most Americans simply don´t know about what their government is doing overseas. They truly believe that "America is a source of good in the world" as Palin put it lately... People are lied to and they believe it...

The majority of the population in this world are dumb actually.  It´s like the saying never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers.  We have seen this over and over through out our world´s history. I wouldn´t say specifically Americans themselves however.  As far as arrogance, I have heard that so many times.  I think if you came to the U.S. and visited the south you would definately have a better understanding that the term arrogance does not apply to all Americans.  Maybe were confident and a little boastful, but so what..

Thanks. I know also the difference between Poland and the US. Do you (maybe?) know the difference between the UK and the Netherlands...?
