Massive double standards AGAIN with worth and unworthy victims

It was indescribable’: Golan Heights town mourns 12 children killed in strike
Majdal Shams residents tell of scenes of horror after children who had gathered to play football were struck
They've hardly bothered covering the last, what, five or six thousand?, deaths in Gaza but now these 12 get their own article with pictures and the town in mourning. You know why the bereaved in Gaza couldn't do the same? Because they were either dead, dodging bombs and bullets or displaced.
I can't recall ANY victims of an ANY apartheid state strike being covered like this and NONE without the usual "but the IDF says this didn't happen and that didn't happen" which is completely absent from this account.
Disgraceful. Not that I dismiss the horror and depravity of these deaths. It's the selective outrage that makes me sick....no amount of cajolery, and no attempts at ethical or social seduction, can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the Tory Party...So far as I am concerned they are lower than vermin.
The Cradle: Syria attributes deadly Golan strike to Israel, denounces attempts to expand war
News at ten - the genocidal settler colonial state habitually lies yet again.
28 July 2024
Extremist Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, along with members of the Likud, were expelled by the local residents of Majdal Shams while trying to attend the funeral on 28 July.
Eyewitnesses at the scene reported that it was an Israeli Iron Dome interceptor missile that fell on the field, according to an Al-Arabi TV correspondent who spoke with a member of Israel's ambulance service, Magen David Adom.
A military expert cited by Sputnik said, "the missile that exploded in Majdal Shams was 100 percent Israeli, and we are faced with two possibilities: either a malfunction in the performance of the Israeli air defense systems, or a deliberate launch to achieve specific goals."
Tel Aviv has described the victims as Israeli civilians. Yet the residents of Majdal Shams are Syrian Druze living under occupation since the illegal occupation of the Golan Heights during the 1967 war.
