It seems many commenters are stuck on the Israel-Hamas angle. The article itself is about more than just that conflict. I encourage others to read the full article (there are not many images of dead kids, for those fearing that this is a slide show of gore). I think the last paragraph is well written: "The past six weeks have made it clear that the world will respond to images of slaughtered children, and it’s worth asking why it’s taken this long for people to see what that looks like. There is no question that images of dead children carry an immense amount of weight, which, in turn, must be handled responsibly. But that does not mean that any attempt to get the public to see them is automatically manipulative or propagandistic. It is far more manipulative to edit out the dead children or to hide them under a veil of solemnity and manners."
