It's not actually a race issue, just an empathy issue. People feel worse for people "like them" because they have "lives like theirs", therefore they can more easily imagine that it WAS them, therefore they feel worse.
If it was Americans people would be more concerned, yes, but this probably applies regardless of whether or not the injured Americans (or Brits, other Europeans, etc.) are white or not... sooo... it's cultural bias rather than racial, basically.
