I haven't said that they are not reported. It's the relative importance given that is obvious.
150+ people have died in Iraq over the last month during wide scale protests. There is an article on this on the BBC's website.
On the other hand, there is almost live coverage with embedded journalists as headline news every time a protester throws something at the HK police, or every time the HK police throws a teargas canister at protesters.
