America is to blame - again

The system failed!

People are incompetent!

They missed the signs, couldn't connect the dots!

Have we forgotten that it is not us (nor US) to blame? Why are we blaming Americans for the thugs behavior? Is this just a convenient excuse? Are we afraid to place the blame where it belongs? Do we feel guilty about something?

I must be missing something here (it is obviously my fault)
