“What really strikes me is that when we saw the injustices in Ukraine, the global community was united and was speaking out loudly against these injustices as we needed to. But when we see the atrocities, the war crimes, the genocide unfolding in Palestine, the world is silent,” says Dr Aliya Khan, a clinical professor of medicine and a board member of the Union of Medical Care and Relief Organisations (UOSSM), which provides medical relief in war zones.

What the fuck is she on about? We hear non-stop about Gaza and almost nothing about Ukraine since the Oct 7 terrorist attack.

I think "the world" here means world governments.

Depending on what you watch it could be pro Israeli propaganda from spokespeople saying "Israel has a right to self defense" on legacy media, to interviews with Palestinians being interviewed about what is going on in Gaza and the West Bank if you listen to progressive news sources.

If you are listening to legacy media then you likely are only hearing the Israeli government side of things, just belarely acknowledging that they are starving children on purpose.

Try visiting /r/worldnews and see if you can find a single article critical of Israel. Try posting a comment critical of Israel and see how many minutes before you are permanently banned.

I was banned October 7th for stating that Israel brought it upon themselves with their own actions. And, yes, I did denounce Hamas as evil. Didn't matter

I don't see stores pulling out of Israel, confiscating their property, boycotting their vodkas, shutting them out of the bank systems, or any of the other countless stuff international governments did against Russia after their invasion of Ukraine.

Seriously, if anything I think the world is ignoring what's been happening in Ukraine. They talk about the fighting and they ignore all the horror.
