Russian troops enter Georgia....


The U.S. education system is (rightfully) famous for producing students with a limited and America-centric view of world geography. In this case one doesn't know whether to blame the education system or perhaps Google's computers for this screencap...

The full headline - "Russia thrusts into South Ossetia; clashes with Georgia reported" - trimmed to emphasize the choice of Google maps.

It's not often that the same post can be labelled with "humor" and "world geopolitics." (credit here, via Neatorama)
