        Israel is in the middle of an ethnic cleansing, Lebensraum grabbing frenzy.

        As it turns out, that sort of behavior strains my capacity for empathy.

          Your capacity for empathy for unrelated, innocent civilians? For kids from another country that go there for lifesaving cancer treatment?

          I’m sorry, but if that’s the case, you sound like a heartlwss person to me.

            Oh please. They do cancer treatments elsewhere on the planet. They made the decision to go where Benjamin Netanyahu likes to impse his will.

            By the way, innocent civilians covers humans living in Gaza, and humans living in Iran.

            I’m sorry, but if that’s the case, you sound like a heartlwss person to me.

            I’m flossing my ass crack with your assessment of me.

            And that family would be alive if Israel wasn’t currently involved in committing crimes against humanity. Or if Israelis had punted Benjamin Netanyahu a long time ago.

    As sad as it is the girl was caught in the crossfire, this is Israeli propaganda showing an obviously innocent victim, to give us the impression Israel is a victim too by proxy, and to distract from the fact that it was Israel that bombed Iran first.
    Israel is NOT the victim here, but they are damned good at making propaganda to make people think that.
    Israel is doing to Iran what Russia is doing to Ukraine.

    Edit for clarity.

    You’re a propaganda troll who’s been banned from multiple instances already. “Allah” my ass.

      and? Israel causes far more suffering in far less humane ways to many, many, many times more people every day, and we’re supposed to feel bad about one family?

      Fuck this manipulative bullshit. None of this would be happening if Israel didn’t think they had a divine right to slaughter and take over a land and generally be a piece of shit in the middle east.

          I do feel bad. The point is why is it being published and pushed? Just because it’s also sad doesn’t mean we just leap head first down the well of propaganda they’re trying to open up…

            Oh, I totally agree. It’s 100% propaganda, and Isreal is just as culpable as Iran for getting this girl killed. It’s being pushed because the Israeli government is shameless in playing the victim.

            This child is just another innocent victim. I’m no fan of Iran either, but Isreal started this shit.

          It is a direct, exact comparison that exists within the same conflict. I’m sorry you fail to understand what whataboutism is.

            Please look at OPs comment, how it begins.

            and?

            It aims to diminish the suffering by arguing with the (inflicted) suffering of said group/another group.

            That is the definition of whataboutism.
