Over 18000 Palestinians were killed, about 70% of them were women and children. Many more under the rubble. 1.9 millions (85% of the population) are displaced.
And you're calling people antisemitic (how original) because they care about the massacres and ethnic cleansing Israel is committing against Palestinians (who are in fact Semitic).
>According to the UN, over 150,000 people have been killed in Yemen, as well as estimates of more than 227,000 dead as a result of an ongoing famine and lack of healthcare facilities due to the war.
I think the OP point is why is this the only war being discussed, not that war is victimless.
Can you please see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38618713 and please not comment in this spirit in the thread? You've been crossing well into the battle that we're explicitly asking users to avoid.
I don't say this in a spirit of criticism—I am certain that you have deep and legitimate reasons for feeling the way that you do. But we're trying hard to have a certain sort of discussion here, one that remains within the intended spirit of this site, as expressed at https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. If you can't find that place in yourself, that's entirely understandable and ok, but please don't post in this thread unless you can.
The same goes for some of the commenters arguing against your position—my moderation point here is certainly not about agreeing with them and disagreeing with you (I add this because I know it can all too easily feel that way).
I'm going to nitpick your comment a bit, but this particular nit drives me crazy.
The term "antisemitic" is well-understood in English to refer to hostility towards Jews. I know the root "-semitic" is in there. Yes, Palestinians are also semitic, but that's not what anyone is trying to communicate when they use the word "antisemitic."
Please don't do it, because it's incredibly trivializing.
