Silence on this from our own protesters. More afghans will die under the taliban than in Gaza. What’s the difference?

I think our protesters have trouble ungluing themselves from various other hot-spots in time to reach them all.

 


Systematically dragged down by the lawmakers

People only care and protest about what the media feed them. For instance, the Saudis have been killing Yemenis for years - see many protests? On the news much?
Turkey has been killing Kurds for years - our allies against Islamic State - they won't be out allies again. I can assure you of that. Protests?
Must be the wrong kind of Muslims. I could give several other examples but what's the point?

It's a very strange thing when people think it somehow discredits a protest to highlight a different cause - there are countless things worth protesting about going on around the world at any given time, you wouldn't be physically able to protest against all of them.

"silence from our own protesters" as if these people are all one entity who volunteered to be a voice on every international relations issue in the world.

Well yes, if people have more exposure to and more information on an event, they are more likely to feel passionate about it one way or the other - that's just obvious.

Your post is in no way a criticism of activists, but a criticism of our media - I'm not sure which was intended.

when Muslims are killing other Muslims.....then it is difficult for the BBC or Fox News to put a spin on it.

how about the Taliban's control of the Heroin Trade ? killing people on a street near you. And no protests neither.
