i see your point but i doubt it's unique to americans, we just happen to be very visible atm. i think it's as old as tribalism and now expanded to large scale groups.

that's universal behaviour found all over the panet. it starts at your body. most people would be more upset to hear their doctor tell them they have to have a finger removed than hearing hundreds of thousands of people died in an earthquake halfway around the world.
in any event i think i may have stated that our iraqi invasion could lead to consequences that ultimately led to less stability and less security. with newly radicalized islamics by the tens of thousands now vowing revenge on us (among other things) there is little evidence that's not case.
