I'm a little confused on what you said about Israel...Helping Israel didn't cause
the problem...Terrorist are just that....They terrorize. They kill and think they will be rewarded in Heaven for killing!...Anyway, to answer your question-----
It probably 'seems' like people care more for Americans dying over here than people dying in other Countries, because that is ALL you can see or hear.....No one knows what goes on behind closed doors---and theres many miles between one person and the next...But, what you DO see, isn't that people don't 'care'..
...They are 'afraid'.....When it happens to your 'fellow' country-man-----it could very easily happen to you! It just hits 'close-to-home'...love, cyndi

It is basic human nature to be more concerned about things that affect  you directly.  Of course, human life has value wherever it is threatened and if informed the American public have empathy for people in other countries.  The media is the culprit in making a big deal about somethings and discounting other, equally important events.

I don't know where you got that idea. Our troops are over there. Dying. For people that are not American. America sends aid for non-Americans in the form of food, water, medical care, clothing, temporary housing. I tend to care more for the American men and women dying on foreign soil, then for the ones who are trying to kill them.

But these people are flesh and bone just like us these people were created equally to us. In a way we started the whole thing by helping to form israel which caused these terrorists groups to form if you don't believe me why is it that muslim terrorist groups all started after 1948

1948? Is that how far back history goes? Gee, thanks for straightening me out. I'm truly amazed at my own ignorence. I could have sworn that America barely even had knowledge of Israel 100 yrs ago. Maybe the Americas fore-fathers, the Europeans did. Maybe they helped FORM Israel and just gave us the credit for it. Oh wait............WE WEREN"T AROUND YET.

Ok I understand completely. But i think its because you are here in America. People think "why should the public care about those guys when our guys are dying there "doing the right thing!"." Suck right but it would be the same over there the t.v. Stations would say something like, "We had 50 Islamic soliders die today for their country" so they believe it all just depends on where you are, when it should really be we all should cry out for one another because we are all human and we all bleed the same color.



Haha I think this is what you were talking about right... If not then you understand where I'm coming from at least... Talk to me if this ain't what you were talking about so you can clarify! Lol

Because the people that are dying are being killed by their own people. And they do nothing to stop it. They know who the killers are, where these cowards build the car bombs, and do nothing. If they don't care about themselves, I'm sure not going to.

Because I'm afraid that we Americans are so self assorted, that we think that we are the only country in the world. You are right we are the only ones we care about
