There's some truth to this, but I think there's an undercurrent of this is one of "our" cities that was attacked. If isis were to have committed the exact same attack in another relatively safe place, let's say some major city in South Africa, I don't think NHL arenas would be having moments of silence. To give another example, the manner in which USA went to war in Iraq, full of lies, deception, and death, would the reaction have been the same in the West had a Muslim country attacked a non-Muslim country this way? To be sure there was some outrage, but I think some of it was mitigated because it was a White/Western country attacking a non-White/Western country.
