The double-standard of western media that treat Palestinians as sub-human
An injuried girl lies on the floor of Nasser Hospital in Gaza on January 22: apparently what happens to her isn’t anything like as important as what happens to the Israeli troops who attacked her because she is Palestinian, and Palestinians don’t matter. Why is that?
You are being misled by the mainstream media into believing that every Israeli death in Gaza is a tragedy but Palestinians are sub-human and their deaths are unimportant.
Hopefully, This Site will be able to redress the balance a little – with your help. Please share articles like this on the social media so your friends and contacts can understand the real situation.
Here’s an article from Declassified, explaining the difference between the handling of Israeli and Palestinian deaths:
Twenty-four Israeli soldiers were killed in two separate incidents in Gaza on 22 January. Mainstream media outlets around the world reacted in unison: that this was the “deadliest day” for Israel since 7 October.
This exact phrase was used in headlines on 23 January carried by news agencies such as Reuters and AFP, and major broadcasters including the BBC, CBS, NBC, CNN, ABC and ITV News.
The exact same phrase was also used by leading news titles including the New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Time magazine, Daily Telegraph, the Sun, Jerusalem Post, Guardian, London’s Evening Standard, Financial Times, Independent and Yahoo News.
On the same day, Israeli forces killed almost 200 Palestinians in Gaza including at least 65 people in Khan Younis alone.
These deaths received no headlines in the above outlets. Where they were reported, they were listed as part of the regular daily round-up of events in an unfolding genocide that has now seen more than 26,000 people killed in Gaza.
How is it possible that the world’s media could embrace exactly the same phrase in relation to Israeli victims but largely ignore the identities of the much higher number of Palestinians killed?
Why would 22 January be described as “deadly” for one group of people but not for another?
Please read the rest of the article and tell us all why you think it is.

Western news media sites are not ‘news sites’ rather they are propaganda ones wherein their sole purpose is to claim ‘wah Israelis are being murdered by those dehumanised Palestinians!’ As to why the fake media outlets are supporting fascist Israeli regime’s continuing mass murder of Palestinians answer is money! Western political leaders can only see money and profits they can obtain by supporting a murderous fascist Israeli regime!
Shame on the fake western media outlets because they are doing the same as the nazis – claiming only Israelis are human and deserving of support!
Unfortunately (sic) not everyone is fooled by these widespread lies being issued by fake western media outlets as evidenced by the continuing protest action in various countries condemning fascist Israeli regime’s murderous campaign against the Palestinians!
