There are actual genocides happening as we speak in countries no one knows or cares about. If your point is that Israel gets attention proportionate to the human suffering taking place that is nonsense.
- GordonS 5y agoMy point wasn't solely about the violence - what makes the atrocities worse (more notable, if you like) is that Western governments don't give half a shit - Israel is a "friend" of the US and UK, with billions in "aid" arms sales flowing into Israel every year.
- joelbluminator 5y agoWell your point has very little to do with what I asked...
- GordonS 5y agoI maybe didn't put it quite right - western governments have much stronger political links with Israel. Hence, I think it makes sense that current events in Israel and Palestine would be reported in western media. As I said initially though, I don't believe Israel gets a disproportionate amount of coverage.
