Are you stupid? You must be. Most people who aren't Arab, Fundemental Christians, or Jewish don't give a shit about that region of the world unless they have something at stake (same with other regions).
It's too rare for someone not to give a shit about something that doesn't involve their ethnic group, family, or friends? Most Americans may care about what goes on in Iraq but what the fuck do they care what Israelis do as long as it doesn't involve Americans.
