It's not true to say that Americans don't know any history, or understand irony. But if you listen to some of the statements coming out of the US State Department, you can see how people might get that impression.
Apparently, officials in the USA have pronounced themselves "disappointed" that some people in Iraqi Kurdistan just voted for independence, without considering how mad that sounds coming from Americans.
Er, guys, can you imagine how George Washington would have reacted to a headline like this?
