Why did this "please the Jews"?


Doesn't this make you wonder?  King Herod has just had one of the disciples, James, killed with a sword.  The next sentence says it "pleased the Jews".  Here is my question.

Why did it please the Jews?

Acts 12:2-4(NKJV)
Then he killed James the brother of John with the sword. 
And because he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to seize Peter also. Now it was during the Days of Unleavened Bread. 
So when he had arrested him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to keep him, intending to bring him before the people after Passover.
