Why do Americans know so little about the rest of the world?

Yes, if you're stationed there in the military. Or watching your military drop bombs on a place, you might remember it's name!
American news outlets are pretty self centered and from a young age Americans are told what to think. Which I guess is true for most people but definitely what I experienced. Propaganda starts with news outlets.

Americans are conditioned to know very little about truths and a lot about lies. They're kept in fear to keep them controlled. It's really sad.
