(36,382 posts)Strange that the regulars who always complain about Sudan not getting the same amount of attention as Palestine never appear in Sudan threads. Same goes for any thread about settler attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank. Its almost like to be labelled a terrorist, they must be Palestinian
Successive US government's haven't funded and supported what's happening in Sudan. And Sudan has the misfortune of being in Africa, where if bad things aren't happening to white South Africans then most media don't pay attention.
Another thing. Is the expectation that if we protest what's happening in Gaza (which I have), that we must also protest what's happening in Sudan? Why stop there? What about Ukraine? Should we expect anyone who protests about Ukraine to also protest about Gaza? Also, how do we know what people are or aren't protesting about or caring about? Its all a bit ridiculous, imho.
