Where is the outrage? Where have all the "humans" gone? Israel slaughtered over 300 innocent civilians in Gaza last night. Most of them women and children.

None of those with #Ukraine, #Canada, #Mexico and #EU flags on their profile raising their voice condemning this outrageous crime.

The sheikh wandered around the city with a lamp

I'm tired of all the devils and the death, and seeking one human

They said it cannot be found, we have searched, As we said before

That which cannot be found I desire

Tbh I had no idea until now. Seriously, fuck Israel. They are worse than Russia at this point.

[–] alkbch@lemmy.ml 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Not at this point, always have been.

[–] Devanismyname@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 hours ago

Don't get how some people can be supportive of that

[–] Keeponstalin@lemmy.world 6 points 4 hours ago

Always has been. Not to say Russia hasn't also been terrible, this kind of ethnic cleansing has been central to Zionism before Israel even existed

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 4 points 4 hours ago

Always have been.

Governments are largely those who decide what will be outraged by the majority of people.

There have been protests for east Congo here in Belgium and now Rwanda is cutting ties with my country for siding with Congo. It's a conflict that started in 2022 but I had no idea. It was just not covered. I still have no idea.

Palestine Israel conflict is well covered. I saw it on the news today, it was an hour long discussion. They showed Oxfam commercial about it, which includes a Belgian young celebrity. She then spoke about it.

The outrage bout Gaza is more present in the younger generation.

Politician of the social democrats at the table said that she hopes that Europe will put sanctions, as it's part of the trade agreement that it will be abolished when human rights aren't being respected.

Trump is choosing the side of murderers with money in each conflict.

*Looks through comments ... I think I found the outrage.

Where is the outrage?

It's there but media and the government are not covering it.

I've seen plenty of articles on both the Guardian as well as the Dutch state broadcaster. Both have liveblogs with frequent updates.

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.ml 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Those 2 will surely mention Israhell has the right to defend itself.

[–] ChairmanMeow@programming.dev -1 points 18 minutes ago (1 children)

They both cited Israel's given reason for the attack, the response from Hamas, the critique and condemnation from the UN, human rights organizations and several world leaders, as well as an expert opinion explaining that this could mean the end of the ceasefire.

Both were factual and neutral in their reporting.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 3 points 13 minutes ago

Did they mention that Israel is blatantly lying about its reason?

Did they mention that Israel has repeatedly violated the ceasefire?

Did they identify that Israel is committing genocide?

Did they avoid calling the government of Gaza "a terrorist organisation"

Did they avoid calling IDF soldiers taken as prisoners of war "hostages"?
