Why no big play in the American media / blogosphere? Easy answer, because there is no sexy racist or religious angle (white overlord wantonly killing minority youth or christian overload wantonly killing muslim youth). You know how self-centered and lazy the american public / media / blogosphere are, without an easy storyline they won't do the research to actually understand whats happening, (particularly in a foreign country) so why should they pay attention.
