    I’m sure that western media will handle this news in a completely rational, reasonable, and non-inflammatory way.

    I’m sure that western media will cover this (outside of Reuters, actually surprised that they did Edit: nope, they didn’t, Aljazeera according to OP. Shouldn’t have given them the benefit of the doubt)

    Honestly, this is the conflict that’s killing me

    reddit-logo is full on board with murdering all of the Palestinians, half of the comments on any given new article don’t even hide it.

    New article about 9 UN people being killed by bombings? Hamas caused it by being in the area (we don’t even know if any Hamas were killed in that strike, never mind the bombers killing 9 people presumably of ‘the right’ countries or ‘good’ intents)

    Article about innocent Palestinians being killed? Their fault for Hamas being there and for voting for Hamas.

    People questioning the veracity of that article talking about kids being killed by Hamas are being absolutely dogpiled for the most milquetoast comments asking for a source maybe more reliable then ‘1 Israeli soldier says it happened’

    Someone points out that like half the pop of Gaza are kids under 15? Fuck em, Hamas has killed kids and that’s carte blanche for Israel to wipe Palestinians out of existence.

    It’s more openly, rabidly deranged then anything I’ve seen since the invasion of Iraq, even the unrest that was only a couple years ago had a lot of pro Palestine stuff. Now?
