Gee...even I know the difference between Afghanistan, Chechnya and Iraq...and they say us Murikans don't know geography. I also know the difference between Jihadists and the Viet Cong. The problem with knee-jerk reactions is that all the jerks are pretty much the same, even if the stimuli were quite different.
I do get weary of debating politics with high school kids; I don't care how un-PC it is.
