I see where you are coming from but I think it is possible to distinguish between what you feel and keeping a sense of perspective intellectually. The bombing of the World Trade Centre was appalling but the worldwide media response appeared disproportionate, to me at least, given the sort of statistics P quotes. That to me is a political matter which it is worth emphasising regardless of how upset or indeed removed one feels from all global atrocities/injustices. I agree entirely that there is no point trying to force yourself to feel guilty.
