white english speaking people in caring more about other white english speaking people being blown in a highly media-covered event in an area where you would not expect explosions than brown iraqi-speaking people in a country that has been experiencing daily explosions for like 12 years shocker

obviously it's not, if something happens in your country it has generally far more effect on you than something that happened on the other side of the world.

It wasnt a point at all. Why would American media talk about a bombing in Iraq when one just happened in their own backyard? Your point was that people care about things that happened to themselves? How insightful.

It didn't even happen in your area, let alone in someone who lives in the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, yet all these countries had their regular programming suspended and first several pages of newspapers dedicated to this. Why? Nationalism. If you think this is okay, just be open about your nationalism.
