Nationality of victims shouldn't matter

In the wake of the passenger plane shot down in Ukraine, our president, the media and other Americans kept asking how many of the dead were Americans. I have been taught that a human life is important whether or not you are Dutch, Malaysian, African, whatever. If more Americans were killed, what difference would it make?
