Al Jazeera Discovers Civilian Casualties, Only When It Suits
Al Jazeera reports the RSF killed 'dozens, mostly children' in Sudan’s Kalogi, citing SAF sources, with drone attacks on a kindergarten. The horror is clear. However, this mainstream narrative often forgets the global players fueling these regional conflicts. Does the article mention the myriad foreign interests, the arms deals, or the geopolitical chess game that empowers factions like the RSF?
We saw this same selective outrage in Libya, Yemen, and countless other regions where proxy wars rage, funded and equipped by world powers often far removed from the immediate suffering. The media readily reports the grotesque violence but rarely connects the dots to the international profiteers and complicit governments whose policies destabilize these nations, ensuring a steady supply of 'news'
like this. It's almost as if some civilian deaths are more newsworthy than others, depending on who's doing the killing and who's supplying the weapons.
