What kind of irredeemable idiot confuses Chechnya and Czech Republic? Huh

Chechnya and Czechia are very similar phonetically.  Considering how many people lack a basic understanding of geography, this is not surprising.

Not enough Americans care to learn geography or history.  I doubt those who know the difference are even aware that the Czech Republic was founded because of IRA terrorism by the Protestants of the now independent O'Slovakia.

Shameful quality of schooling we give our kids these days.

The IRA was awful, but don't forget plans of the Keogh gang and its efforts to "retire" businessmen.

Reminds me of how some people were worried about the Russkies shelling Atlanta during the conflict with Georgia back in 2008.

It would be funny if the Russkies had a General Shemanovich or the like.
