Palestine is the latest trendy conflict that’s increasingly made out to be the kid picked on by the local playground bully. It isn’t, it is yet another fledgling Islamic state that we will all regret allowing to develop.

Another Iran, Iraq or Libya in the making
Is that an excuse not to care Grist? 99% of British people didn't know where the Falklands were. In fact I would say your statistic probably applies to most places. I'm sure 90% of Americans couldn't point out England on a map.
