ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Taliban militants attacked the airport in Peshawar, the main city in northwestern Pakistan, on Saturday evening, leaving 7 dead, including 2 civilians, and at least 40 people wounded, most of them civilians.
Yet if a Civilian tradgedy happens in the USA we get 40 threads on it.
Does this mean that the lives of innocent Pakistanis are of far less value than that of an American or other Western citizen, or do we just not care?

Well, my opinion is this...
Most Americans only care about what happens in the U.S.
Why ? They probably heard they were special to many times...

Oh, and I suppose you are a saint that cares about everyone...hmmmm?
Most people care what happens in their own country, if something happens elsewhere - not so much.
