Who else is sick of seeing the pathetic Syria image of the day plastered on the front page of CNN.com every fukking day? Its always some pathetic image of some dirty kid crying, or some wailing syrian woman. These fukkers at CNN act as if Syria is the only place where tragic events are taking place. Mean while people are being killed daily in Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq, Nigeria, Palestine, Mali, Eritrea, and a host of other countries yet no front page news stories for the war victims there. Only Syria is worth CNN's time apparently.

the media is evil. That is all.

Well, first of all, its worse when your own government does it.

Second of all, its even worse when they're killed because they want to vote for their leaders.

Under these conditions (a government shooting its own citizens because "hey we would like to vote"), over 8,000 dead is quite a number.

Not to mention, the potential of an actual revolution draws attention.

You must be speaking of Mexico who has had over 60,000 deaths and the Media hasn't said shyt about that.

I'm tired of UN inaction more than anything. It's time to gas the jets.

Whoever Israel doesn't like will be portrayed as public enemy # 1 here in the US. The fact that TLOL has the first reply in this thread is proof of that.

in terms of geo politics what happens in syria for the next few weeks will have a much wider impact than any of the places you mentioned, mostly becuase syria is allied with iran, so whatever happens in syria will impact when or if the us or isreal attack iran

Your second sentence does not prove your first sentence - in any way, shape, or form. Are you retarded?

I've heard more about South Sudan and CAR on the CBC in the last three weeks than any other countries. Especially south sudan it has been the leading international news story for a while now.
