Pop quiz: What happened to that person after this picture was taken?

Here's the rest of that video (Don't click until you have answered the question based on your own knowledge!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wdwaHQeWmg

It's just that the place name is more associated with this event and is most famous for it.

Right? If you Google "twin towers" half of the pics are of it burning.

It's just the most common search, especially in English because more English speaking countries only know the location because of the event.

Is it hard to understand that news stories about something titles a "massacre" will have results about that first.

Search Waco and the first thing to show up won't be the local school.
