Okay, I care about both. Now what?

What more am I going to say other than both things are bad? I'm not even saying that there should be equal time given to both issues, since Ukraine is being given billions of dollars to fight back and Palestine isn't.

I'm pointing out the hypocrisy of Western media reporting and their attempts to manipulate public opinion to condemn these actions in one conflict (Ukraine-Russia), but to ignore or even support them in another (Palestine-Israel).

I'm not saying that I care about one and not the other, but that the media (and our governments) want us to.
