I was poking fun at how most people assume Americans are.

True, I am very cold hearted. But do you surely think that I have that attitude of "If they're not Americans they don't matter"?

Many people DON'T share that view, its just that most US news services don't cover anything that doesn't directly concern the US.

In my newspaper, that particular terrorist attack was a blurb on the bottom of the front page. The headline in my newspaper was an article about one of the grocery stores around here being sold.

If people outside of America are stupid enough to believe that most Americans think that way, then maybe Americans SHOULD have that kind of attitude.
