Twenty-two-year-old Shir Georgy went missing after the militant group attacked the music festival near Kibbutz Re’im last Saturday.

Georgy’s aunt, Michal Bouganim, says the family is a mess and heartbroken.

    What makes you wake up in the morning and post this sort of comment? Why are they less news worthy than anyone else?

      Because most news and people keep posting news providing love and support for Israel while ignoring the elephant in the room?

      What makes you wake up in the morning and post this sort of comment?

      My ability to give a crap about other people? How is one person’s death more important to report than over ten thousand? Everyone’s acting like I’m the devil for bringing it up.

        I see a complete mixed bag of support and criticism browsing any news on the topic. If you only see support for Israel have you considered its because you keep engaging with it and the algorithms think you want to see more? Regardless this is probably getting more news coverage despite the imbalance of victim counts because news agencies can actually speak to the families involved and share their stories. They can’t just pop over to Palestine to talk to the murdered peoples families without greater risk to themselves.
