- dotancohen 2y ago> Assad has killed about half a million Syrians already in the civil war. How can that be true? Western academics protest when so many people are killed. The Gaza health ministry itself claims less that 1/10 of that number, and look at how many protests and riots are in the US right now. If Syria really had half a million dead you'd see the academics rioting about that.

- tdeck 2y agoPeople typically protest their own government to effect policy changes. In the case of Gaza, the US is sending billions of dollars to Israel on a regular basis. The Syrian government, meanwhile, has been sanctioned for more than a decade by these western countries. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_sanctions_against_Syria https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_sanctions_agai...
- bojan 2y agoKeep in mind that Gaza's Health Ministry isn't really functional any more, and they are in no state to keep numbers.
