Most Americans educated on the fallacies of history: AnalystHoenig made the remarks in an interview with Press TV on Saturday while commenting on US President Donald Trump’s statement and Fourth of July celebrations in the United States.

Speaking at a Fourth of July event at Mount Rushmore on Friday, Trump said that American children are being indoctrinated to "hate their own country" in schools.

“Our nation is witnessing a merciless campaign to wipe out our history, defame our heroes, erase our values and indoctrinate our children,” Trump said while commenting on protests countrywide against police brutality and racism.

Trump slammed those tearing down statues of Confederate leaders and other figures.

"The violent mayhem we have seen in our streets and cities are run by liberal Democrats in every case is the predictable result of years of extreme indoctrination and bias in education, journalism and other cultural institutions," he said.

"Against every law of society and nature, our children are taught in school to hate their own country and to believe that the men and women who built it weren't heroes, but villains. The radical view of American history is a web of lies," he added.
