For the record the statement about "understanding history like we do in Europe" is that "we r old skool" mentality that Americans are so sick and tired of, and why you've been getting the responses from others like you have. We have our own collective history from the founding of our nation to before, up to now. Just because it doesn't stretch back thousands of years doesn't make it any less meaningful or comprehensive, or give us less perspective. In that regard, Europeans do need to get over themselves.
And you need to get over yourselves and stop hijacking threads about Merkel and Germany and turning them into "Britain vs Scotland", "America vs Terrorism" "America vs America" and whatnot!

I'm sick and tired of your "we r all that matters" mentality that turns every thread about my glorious nation into a thread about your nation and it's the reason why you get responses like this one.
