Textbook troubles
Looks like East Asia's not alone in its textbook troubles"
Angered by what it described as the "serious issue" of the existence of schoolbooks in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) which contain material implying claims on Greek territory, Athens yesterday called on the neighboring country to put an end to its "dangerous propaganda."
Well, to be honest, "FYROM" isn't exactly a national title that inspires much pride. It's not even a title -- it's an acronym. So maybe the Greeks should just let a little "dangerous propaganda" slide and focus on more important things, like preparing for a shadow invasion from Turkey.
