Well, the current protests seem to replace "imperialist vs. traitor" with "racist vs. traitor."
But yeah, I'd say it is mostly because all the people most directly affected by the issue are here. With the Iraq war the people most directly affected aren't here in numbers and those who are tend to support the war (my sample is small but all the Iranians I know are generally supportive; as you might expect since the previous circumstance was generally the reason they were over here in the first place).
