If people are truly honest, no one cares about what’s happening in another country—or the suffering of its people—unless they have a deep personal connection to those people. Around the world, there are countless cases of atrocities, oppression, and suffering—many far worse than what is happening in Gaza. So why the obsessive fixation on Israel while basically ignoring greater tragedies elsewhere?
Because, at its core, it’s fueled by jealousy and hatred. Few will admit it, so they wrap it in the language of morality—convincing themselves, and others, that they care deeply about “human rights.” But they don’t.
They aren’t empathetic, they aren’t kind, and they aren’t honest. They bend history, twist facts, and use false virtue as a cover for resentment
