No it's because we are taught world history, not just that which relates to our own country.

That's kinda my point. Nothing is in a vacuum, national history is intrinsically linked to world history, and vice versa. In this case, American atrocities are foundational for an ideology built upon atrocities. It's good to never forget how it happened. America could use those lessons.
