I agree with you but we had daily 9/11s for months under Trump (in terms of COVID deaths) and people just said fuck it, whoever dies dies, lets just get back to life as usual and not care. Bunch of them even fought against vaccines when they came out to stop those daily 9/11s.
So I really don't think people care all that much about mass casualty events any more. I wouldn't even be surprised if media stops covering school shootings one of these days because there is more 'more exciting' news out there or something. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |

The last productive thing Islam introduced to the world was Arabic numerals. Since then they've priced nothing but corruption, death, destruction and suffering.

Right, Europe is known for its peace, lack of conquering of each other and last 80 years aren't an anomaly.
Armenia, Holodomor, Holocaust. Just these on paper match congo. World wars also killed 100 million civilians. But that doesn't stop the privileged western white woman from telling the victims "well, it wasn't that bad!" | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Tbf the trade routes through the suez canal mainly supply europe, not the US, so they are mostly defending european trade routes.
As a european, im the first to admit that our political strategy has been relying on the US for military defense, and while as a leftist i can partly defend this decision as a general european lack of appetite for investement in the military following 2 world wars primarily fought on our soil, i think the responsibility to protect european interests cant forever be outsourced. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |

Egypt already fought a nearly decade long war with Yemen that an American ambassador at the time compared the Vietnam war to. No country is interested in putting boots on the ground in Yemen which is the only way to end this. Not Saudi, not the US, not European countries and certainly not Egypt in the current financial state of the government. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |

? Is there some beef between Egypt and Israel that I've missed? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Their western favoritism is also pragmatic from a societal/worldview standpoint. Egypt took a few steps back, but ultimately understands the self-imposed mess the Mideast creates for itself. It’s been involved in numerous negotiations and peace treaties. They also rely heavily on tourism.
There’s no reason a country as small as Israel can have numerous, multinational companies…while neighbors in close proximity (outside of wealthy oil nations) don’t have much to envy.
In case it hasn’t become obvious, there’s a direct correlation between women’s rights and prosperity that “non-western” nations have fail to grasp. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Ghengis Khan begs to differ. When dealing with ancient ideologies, ancient solutions proven to work are the only avenues to true victory. Problem is that means literally killing everyone. Which is why Islamic terrorism will never die. We've evolved past it, religious fundamentalists haven't. They're fighting a fight the modern world can't win. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |

If the US doesn't handle it, China will, and give up influence to an opposed power in the world. The US would lose in that exchange.
Also, India, Japan, and the EU are some of America's best trade allies. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
why bother fighting to defend your country when you already let it be legally invaded and taken over, kinda makes sense now. and anyone with a brain knows those people won't defend the freedom they were granted, just like they didn't try shit against the taliban once the US pulled out | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |

Are there no Israeli journalists? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
Mentioning a single digit soldier death toll in w war that has wiped out 20k civilians on the opposing side seems like a strange headline to me. October 7 was an attack on 100’s of innocent Israeli civilians. I sympathize for the 8 Israeli soldiers but that number is negligible to the number of innocent Palestinians killed daily. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
What does that have to do with this? Are Israeli journalists a part of Hamas? | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |

So around 50,000 Palestinians dead, the majority of which are women, children, and the elderly vs around how many Israelis? Last I saw it wasn’t more than 5,000. I’m not say trying to say this isn’t all fucking terrible but I am appalled that Israeli military deaths get reported by every news outlet around while the Palestinian civilians get completely ignored. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-15-06 |
It appears they have edited their comment. It’s a shame they didn’t make it clear that they performed an edit, nor clarify the exact changes made.

Annapolis, Taba, Camp David. Not to mention the original partition plan. (Edit: Though, arguably, the partition plan didn't end up in Palestinian sovereignty because Jordan and Egypt conquered the Palestinian territory).
Here are the borders proposed at Annapolis in 2008: http://www.passia.org/media/filer_public/f6/ba/f6baca72-afb0-46ac-a229-5636c012b19c/pdfresizercom-pdf-crop_47.pdf

Here's a report on what is being taught in Palestinian schools. It's bad enough that the EU withdrew funding over it:
https://www.impact-se.org/wp-content/uploads/PA-Reports_-Selected-Examples_Update_Sept-2020.pdf
Some relevant quotes:
> In fifth grade, dying is described as better than living, in a chapter glorifying Palestinian martyrs. Those who seek to live fruitful, peaceful lives instead of taking the path of martyrs are criticized. "Drinking the cup of bitterness with glory is much sweeter than a pleasant long life accompanied by humiliation."
or:
> Martyrdom, specifically dying in the battlefield as an act of jihad, will result in "rewards." Students are encouraged to discuss goals and concepts of jihad, jihadi fighters (mujahid) and the wonders of martyrdom for individuals and for society. No other interpretation of jihad is offered.
or:
> Death is described as unavoidable and predestined. This theological claim is connected directly
with a call to engage in jihad, leaving no room for different interpretations.
You can read more yourself.
So, while I'm sure that on some level, Palestinians love their kids, they are being taught that dying to harm Israel is better than living. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
>But the response from Israel is clearly out of proportion
So what Israel should have done is find a music festival in Gaza (good luck with that, BTW) and kill 364 people there, gang rape the same amount of women that were raped by Hamas, invade the near communities and kill the same amount of civilians while they sleep, mutilating and torturing them in the same manner Hamas did to Israeli families, take 240 hostages, torture them and use the same psychological warfare Hamas uses on the remaining 120 hostages while publicly stating they'd do that again and again? Because THAT is proportion, you dimwit. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
That makes so much more sense cheers | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Is this seriously the only argument you Hamas supporters can come up with? Guess every other lied spewed out by Gaza has been disproved. Now you all resort back to child murder. Wouldn’t be surprised if it was something new next week | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
You know that it does, right? Just gives a couple minutes leeway for any quick change. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
This was actually above the fold, top line news in many outlets including Al Jazeera and CBC, and maybe fourth or fifth story down on Reuters and AP. Easy thing to miss if you're not looking. Also noticed you omitted the fact that it was in a hostage rescue situation where they were being held in a civilian area, and many killed were likely combatants. Clearly what you are looking for is unbiased balanced coverage. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
Thanks for doing the math on how many innocent casualties you consider acceptable against the average, provided they’re Muslim clearly. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
The number 210 is probably false. There's some real number, which includes Hamas military casualties. There is a number of Palestinians killed by Hamas firing RPGs in urban environment; we will never know that number.
Random internet person framing: Israel killed 200 Palestinian civilians by accident. 🤷 | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |

While this should not affect the value of their lives, I feel the need to point out that you do not seem to understand that in small countries, citizens are usually required to serve in the military. The same way drafts work.
Off the top of my head, Israelis and South Koreans are required to serve in their respective armies. Ukraine recently stopped giving expats passports to force them to return and join the army. Those people do not choose to become soldiers. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
I don't think Israel has put that on the table. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |

I reckon you didn't pay attention when Gaza carried terrorist attacks in Israel in which even their civilian population took part in, which is preceded by their trying to rain missiles on Israel over the course of 20 years.
Turns out that 1) No country will just sit on its ass while a hostile nation launches an attack on them that ends with 1,139 of its population dead in horrifying ways as well as 120 other people are abducted to be held hostage, and 2) Giving a superior enemy reason to wage war against you is bound to end up being a *very* lopsided conflict. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-17-06 |

Yet, how easily their freedom they believe they’re voting for is taken away.

The European elections use proportional representation. RN (the far right) won 31% of the vote and that directly translates into 31% of the seats (actually even more because of how small parties are treated).
The national elections in France are unusual in Europe for not using proportional representation, but rather single member constituencies (like in the UK or US), with a two round system. If in the second round all or most of the other parties support one another against RN, RN needs 50% of the vote in the respective constituency for each seat. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-16-06 |
