No you don't understand. Israel brutally barraged the car with bullets and murdered her entire family.
Then the 6 year old girl begged for her life on the phone so the khamass Palestinians sent an ambulance. Then israel shot the ambulance that was supposed to rescue her with a tank.
Then israel let this 6 year old girl which was begging for her life on the phone die a slow and painful agonizing death trapped in a car with her dead family members for at least multiple hours before dying from either an infection, being shot again, or a panic attack.
This clearly means that she died of natural causes so israel didn't kill her directly and they aren't responsive for this. Do you see how stupid you are sounding now?
How much longer can we tolerate this as Americans? This evil committed in our name while the domestic situation and infrastructure crumbles while we see disaster on the horizon .....
Arnt they supposed to at least keep us distracted with bread and circus? It's like they think so little of us anymore they don't even need to try.
People will chase you out of the room if you say you're not voting for Biden for funding a genocide. Because "Trump very bad". Watch ME get chased out, too, now. Lol
Yeah, because that's stupid. Not voting for Biden makes a Trump win that much more likely and if you think he's not gonna fund genocide, you might actually be living in an alternate reality. He'll also do his level best to ensure Russia takes over Ukraine, hurt women domestically, do as much damage to the LGBTQ+ community as possible, trash the economy for anyone not ultra wealthy, and so on. It's not an exaggeration to say that a second Trump presidency would be catastrophic, but hey, you show Biden on this one issue, buddy. Good for you for not being able to see the bigger picture and sticking to your principles at the expense of a lot of other people.
If you’re American you have to vote for either Trump or Biden though, you don’t have the luxury of voting neither.. in a two party system an abstention equals a vote for the winner.
Yeah, Biden funds a genocide in Palestine. Trump would do the same (he did move the embassy to Jerusalem..) plus ALSO aiding the genocide in Ukraine as he is already doing with his aid cockblock policy.
There are times when the genocide supporter is the lesser evil. I don’t envy your country one bit.
I’m voting for Genocide Joe. I’ve entertained voting for third party, but the the threat of fascism under Trump is real . I understand the sentiment, and can’t fault those who choose to abstain or vote third party. But a Trump presidency would effect the entire world and lead to more deaths.
Superbowl’s tonight, eh? He gets us. I wonder if he’ll smite that devil woman for fixing the big game. If I lose my bet I’m not paying up because she RIGGED it. This is a fight between our LORD and EVIL.
…what’s a “Gaza” anyway? Like Lady Gaza or whatever?
Then, tomorrow, back to work. Company downsized and I do three people's jobs now for same pay. CEO says I work much harder in the office than from home.
News radio is sad, and I'm already sad, so I'll listen to a funny podcast in traffic.
Get home exhausted. Maybe do a good deed by up voting the stories people need to hear. Count down to weekend.
There's too much money involved for our overlords to stop. The Israeli aid lobby is massive and feeds the war machine that our politicians personally profit from. Then there's money that comes from Jewish donors and other interests that hate Muslims. It's all about the money.
US corporate media lean in favor of Israel. As Abeer Al-Najjar (New Arab, 7/28/22) noted: “The framing, sourcing, selection of facts, and language choices used to report on Palestine…often reveal systematic biases which distort the Palestinian struggle.”
3 of your examples are not American though, but British. The BBC and The Guardian certainly aren't skimping on reporting facts about genocide in Gaza. This, and the fact that the context of the Gazan story is quite different, is why your argument has merit but this specific comparison isn't particularly fitting.
That our media has a double standard, a bias for supporting Israel. Russia killed children in Ukraine, they say “killed”. Israel killed children in Palestine, but they won’t say that - instead, those children are just “dead”.
Very little difference in practice because the killing by IDF is implied or deducted anyway - but it’s a difference in rhetoric.
That six year old child was not “dead”, she was killed by Israel. Her relatives, whose corpses she spent her last days surrounded by, were killed by Israel.
It's a common propaganda tactic to use slightly different terms for the same thing, depending on how the victims are viewed by a country and its media. Some people die, as if they were doomed anyway, or as if they were just statistics in a paper. Some others are killed, like actively by the hand of the enemy, which makes it tragic and sad.
It's one of the differences between unworthy and worthy (of media coverage, or consideration by the public) victims.
