Why would it be? People love patriotically murdering a bunch of other people in a place that never lifted a finger against them.

It shows us that we are strong, and others are weak, and that we need to attack the weak before they become strong and destroy us.

This sort of shit sells like hotcakes.

Also those pictures of the tyrant's statue being torn down, very newsfriendly. Maybe we can have another round of those soon without even travelling outside the US.
