Bodies of Israeli residents and Palestinian militants lay outside of burned-out homes in the Israeli kibbutz Kfar Aza on Tuesday, days after Hamas launched a large-scale surprise assault on Israel, sending heavily armed fighters pouring across the border from Gaza and rampaging through rural communities.

That’s exactly the point. Nobody in the media or here on Lemmy or in any of the other outlets in general even cared when it happened. So instead we’ve created an environment where people have ignored one situation and are responding to another and it completely strips the entire conversation of the context that’s required to understand it.
It’s like a routinely and sadistically bullied individual going into a school and shooting up the place. It’s deplorable, it’s unethical, but the context needs to be there for any honest conversation.
How is anyone supposed to solve this mess if we’re not willing to look at root causes and original feelings from which this violence occurs?

Nobody even looks until the bullied kid has enough and decks the bully right in his fat, hypernationalist mouth, then the adults all freak out protecting the bully and the “aggressor” gets punished.
Let’s not pretend the world is any different than a high school.

This is more like the bullied kid going on to shoot up a daycare that the bully’s mom/dad works at and killing indiscriminately.
If you’re going to defend that kid because they were bullied, will you defend a survivor that brutally murders them in cold blood when they grow up? And every single person related to them?
The only people who think everything is like high school are those who never mentally left it. Or are still in it.
