More people are dieing in Iraq than Lebenon and Isreal..

So why are there so many posts about the Isreali conflict?.. Stop watching FOX and CNN.. The media wants to draw attention away from the conflict thats much worse and actually involves us and our tax dollars..

Why are people freaking out now? Have they gotten sick of the Iraq problems?

Seriously though, Every big headline is about Isreal, but as a small sidenote 50-some people die everyday in Iraq. I guess were just used to it. We need Isreal to regain our attention. :rolleyes:

Dont worry about Iraq, within the year it'll probably completely destablize and fall into civil war.

Iraq will make a come-back baby.

There are also people dying in Zimbabwe, Sudan and Afghanistan to name a few. The media is so focused on Israel they don't give any insight to some of the other atrocities happening in the world right now.

I'll bet there are more people dying in China than anywhere else.

Now I'm as much against war as anyone, but here's a little secret - people die. There's nothing we can do about it, everyone is going to die.

People will still die. In fact, some people may live longer as a result of those wars....but they'll still die sometime.

well, medias can't go in Iraq for a reason. I believe it's also terrible, but nothing can be done now, it's an USA affair, it's been condemn a thousand times on this board, and i think we all know everyone point of view on the subject, anyway...

I totally disagree with that statement. And if you're being sarcastic in reply to my post, I qualified it by saying I'm against war and killing. I was making a point about "saving lives" and "people dying".

And many more people are dieing in Africa through our inaction than are dieing in Iraq thriugh our actions.
