American sniper was 10,000 miles away from his country occupying another country.
Iraqi sniper was on his own territory no matter what ideology he held.
American sniper was shooting quite often at Iraqi civilians that he wanted to believe were terrorists (how was he able to distinguish, we don't know).
Iraqi sniper was shooting only at American occupation soldiers.
It figures that American viewers would identify with the American occupiers. No surprise there.
PS I could not get myself to watch the movie.
