Global Media Suddenly All Over This Darfur Thing - Turns Out, It's Israel's Fault
Suddenly - 200,000 deaths later - global media outlets are all abuzz with the atrocities being committed in Darfur. And wouldn't you know it, it's Israel's fault that people are getting killed:
There still appears to be some confusion about what exactly is going on in Darfur - some sort of violence that seemingly came out of nowhere apparently. Just some folks fighting, ya know? Certainly no religious motive for the massacres.
Although - the Sydney Morning Herald does mention a certain Abrahamic religion four times, including in the lede. But that religion isn't Islam. Want to take a guess what religion it is? The religion that they drop four times in association with the massacres in Darfur? Come on, guess. You'll never guess.
Never mind that the truth of this debate is that most of the refugees are economic refugees. When there's an anti-Israel angle to be had - especially if it can be used in some way to blame Jews for the violence perpetuated in the name of a certain other religion - then you can be quite sure that global media outlets will find it.
We're thinking of trying to convince the UN and global media outlets that the Jews are secretly behind Iran's nuclear program. That thing would get shut down in a week. (h/t: Deb)
