Global goofs: U.S. youth can't find Iraq

Young Americans may soon have to fight a war in Iraq, but most of them can't even find that country on a map, the National Geographic Society said Wednesday.

The society survey found that only about one in seven -- 13 percent -- of Americans between the age of 18 and 24, the prime age for military warriors, could find Iraq. The score was the same for Iran, an Iraqi neighbor.

Luckily, in my elementary school, I could briliantly found the map of US without seeing it long. Even closing my eyes. It seem that the only view of the top people of United States is the shining oil at Iraq. Hahahaha, I like to laugh this weekend. :)
