An American denounces the double standards in mourning the victims of terrorism
This post first appeared on Russia Insider
Ever notice how we mourn people in one part of the world and are completly oblivious to the tragedy that terrorists visit to other parts of the world?
Our media and politicians have programmed us to grieve for some and ignore the suffering of others.

This thought-provoking video opens our eyes to the ever-growing number of terrorist attacks around the world and shows what it would be like if people were consistent and changed their profile pictures whenever tragedy struck anywhere in the world, such as with Novorossiya, one of the places where this type of double standard has been most pronounced.
