It is very much by design. In school world geography is mostly skimmed over. Especially how the invisible lines change with time - how many people realize Iran = Persia?
More insidious, though, is what I've seen on the news recently (this was FOX). They will show a map so far zoomed into Iran that there is no context as to where it is geographically. There are barely any labels. For somebody who already knows you'll recognize the horn of africa, and Saudi Arabia, the eastern portion of the Mediterranean, etc. but the news intentionally hinders understanding.
Edit: Goddammit. Replied in the wrong thread. Carry on,,,
Indeed. It's all packaged nicely to not unsettle the goyim. Most don't stop for a moment to think, what the hell is really going on as they're kept nice and busy and under duress from one urgent situation to another. And, as you say, don't even stop to think about what Iran represents or their history. Hell, they've even got us throwing away our own history so how is it we'd be able to understand the middle east. It's almost like they want us to place ourselves into a of our own making that we would than embrace reality.
