God I love the onion

“What of the tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians killed before this attack?” some may ask. Our response is simply that we aren’t going to engage with that because it would be too hard. We also won’t be addressing Palestinians living in refugee camps without access to clean water, electricity, or housing. Others may ask, “Isn’t it your responsibility to provide context, particularly on thorny issues such as this one?” To that, we merely say: No, shut up. You’re being annoying.

Damn these guys are good. Managing to satirize the media, take a hands-off approach, and still raise valid points all in a couple paragraphs.

Satire is one of the few things in this world that really cuts straight into the absurdity of humanity. I wish the solutions were as easy as pointing out what a clown car this planet is.

Small detail some might miss, one of the editorial board signatures is Ted Kaczynski.

Brilliant paragraph:

They Even went futher:

Moderate U.S. Politician Believes Israel Should Only Kill Half Of Palestinians

and

Dying Gazans Criticized For Not Using Last Words To Condemn Hamas

This is not a real news article but we'll allow it in this instance because it sheds light on very real issues.

Please refrain from posting non news articles next time.

Man every once in a while The Onion demonstrates how satire is supposed to be used. This is remarkable.

I got permanently banned from /r/worldnews because criticizing Israel is "misinformation"

It sucks that we are not allowed to call bad ideas, bad ideas. Especially when it comes to Israel. Criticism is always antisemitism. I'm sorry I don't believe any country should be able to start an ethnostate and drive millions of people out of an area they have lived for what? Thousands of years? What does Israel think is going to happen? They are teaching a whole new generation to hate them. (as if they already diddnt) This will just cause more terrorist cells to pop up and work to kill more innocent people.

All in the name of some sky daddy. The only reason the US supports Israel is because some 2000 year old work of fiction wrote some doomsday prophecy.

Ok I was ready to be disappointed but this is lengendary

The onion nails it again.

I'm glad at least Krystal and Kyle are trying to throw some water of sanity on the raging wildfires of bad takes out there.

Ah, an honest journalism at last

This is a fraught moment, and one that has polarized not only Americans but people all over the world. It demands incredible sensitivity and strict adherence to journalistic standards of objectivity, and simply put, that is something we aren’t willing to do. Rather, we’re just going to say The Onion expresses its steadfast solidarity with Israel and leave it at that.

It seems everyone did the same for the same reason.
Everyone is "standing" with them because they have power unlike Palestine who have none.

Good satire but it's a bit hard to laugh for me, because it just reminds me how shitty people are leading the societies here on dumb Earth.

Finally, and more importantly, it’s because we don’t want to and you can’t make us. You can’t. You seriously can’t. You cannot make us do all of this hard stuff. Ever. Seriously.

Remember Charlie?

Idek if this is a real article or an actual announcement because both would be equally fair.
