They're isolated incidents in the middle east as well. Just really well-publicised ones, as they're the hot topic of the day; a guaranteed sell.

It seems to be a habit of American newsvendors to only show the latest shining surface of an event and act as if there's no etymology, no build-up. This means you're presented with a parade of new villains, and you're never properly told how they came about, just that they are utterly villainous and that's all you need to know. America's collective amnesia can have good sides- you elected a black president fifty years after randomly lynching black citizens, which England, with its antiquated and dusty old rituals, would never do- but it also means you do not build any connections between former events instigated at your behest and those of the present. Y'all armed, trained and brought together these sonsovbitches, and now you want to indiscriminately kill 'em all, right before rinsing and washing and repeating. We great moral arbiters of the world may not behead, but we do murder civilians en masse every other way we can, because it's profitable to keep the war machine chugging. At least those dogmatic atavists out there in the cradle of civilisation have some misguided sense of morality (however warped it may be) at the root of their atrocities. We're killing solely in the name of monetary gain.
