I have a sneaking suspicion that America does not do this type of "we're all going to die and we know it" thing -- it is mostly "we're gonna get home to mary jane!" or "we're gonna beat those baddies till they bleed, even if there are a million of them and three of us". I exaggerate, but I keep getting this prejudice confirmed.
Europe has more of a "we're going to die and we know it, but we are going to do it anyway" thing going. Positive thinking not so much a thing around here. We see through it.

They haven't lost enough wars for that, maybe?

I find this Euro-speculation humorous and misguided.

Well, if you like that, are you rethinking your initial assessment of the battle cry?

Who's lumping several societies into one? The European Union, most likley.

Don't really see your point on the Alamo. You don't people think would be motivated by that?
