But the real outrage in this whole affair is that there are hospitals that have been bombed – in Israel. On his Substack, journalist Julio Rosas reported:
Barzilai Medical Center is a major hospital in Israel’s southern region, the epicenter of the nearly two-week-old high-intensity conflict between Israel and Hamas. Hundreds of rockets from Gaza have been fired at the seaside city, with many hitting buildings and people who happen to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Despite being a hospital, Barzilai Medical Center has been attacked at least four times by rockets fired by terrorist groups in the Gaza Strip. //
Barzilai Medical Center serves as the main hospital for wounded soldiers and provides medical services to about half a million people in Israel’s southern region. “We know it from former rounds of battles here that the hospital is being targeted directly. They want to give the impression to the people in Israel that nowhere is safe,” Dr. Givaty told Rosas. //
So, where’s the wall-to-wall coverage for the constant bombing of Barzilai Medical Center? Where is the outrage coming from the elite members of the chattering class? Where are the rallies at the Cannon House Office Building? //
If America’s once-vaunted Fourth Estate were serious about journalism, they would report on instances in which both Israelis and Palestinians are suffering – and they would do their level best to ensure they are giving their audience the truth instead of perpetuating narratives designed to promote a particular agenda.
