It pops up because it is reassuring...that whatever America or the West is doing in the world is just, and if there are objections, they are invalid. If there are violent objections, they are to be crushed.
It takes away any responsibility for thinking about why the extremists have sympathizers, why governments are willing to risk basing terror activities, and why the slums of the middle east have become a breeding ground for militant groups.
