Like it or not, America's culture has contributed to the world. You don't need to like Coca-Cola, but I bet you can find it in your country. Jazz and Rock n Roll are American art forms that can be heard all over the world. How do you find that you enjoy using the internet – how about GPS for your navigation system? The Arabs gave us astronomy and the number 0, but that was a very long time ago . . . . and they are still living in mud houses today – yeah, it's a very advanced "culture". Should we talk about the oil they "invented" or the fact that they can't even drill the holes for their own wells? C'mon Arabs, being absent from class for the last millenium has really put you behind – you're going to have to work much harder now to catch up to the rest of the class, or forever be stuck in kindergarten.
