Well you see, if the US is doing something completely evil and indefensible then the only fallback for the American exceptionalism-poisoned western mind is to immediately declare that everywhere else is even worse! Otherwise we wouldn't live in the Greatest Country on Earth(tm), and that's impossible no matter how much our lying eyes say otherwise.
