I'm joined by Mohammed Hisam. He is a Palestinian-American community organizer and attorney based out of Houston, TX.

A CASE OF SELECTIVE EMPATHY

Those who practice selective empathy facilitate ethnic cleansing—an international crime. 

Content like this, featuring images of terrible suffering by Palestinians in the latest clash between Gaza and Israel highlights the shameless hypocrisy of the West as it applies selective empathy to the media coverage assigned to this immense tragedy. We don't see ppl crying on the mainstream media when it's Palestinians. We don't see Dana Bash, Anderson Cooper and their ilk tearing up over these images.  What we do see is how effectively they bury such material. This clip (found at 39:00) showing a Palestinian father with his dead baby is simply beyond heart-rending.  It is obvious that if the US or EU networks showed it with the alacrity and mawkish sentimentality they reserve for Israeli casualties, the tide of public opinion would quickly shift. Incidentally, our attempt to display this video on YouTube was swiftly blocked by that platform, assigning the video an "age-restricted" rating (a way to actually shadowban the video, thereby strangling its circulation). This was done under the pretext of a supposed violation of undefined and capriciously applied "community standards"—a sneaky practice used by Big Tech and the US government to censor free speech.

PASS THIS CLIP AROUND AS WIDELY AS POSSIBLE! 
The father is asking that we "Show the world!", and it's our duty to try our best to honor that request.

This material is part of the video on the Palestinian/Israeli conflict discussed by Katie Helper and activist Mohammed Hisam on Halper's show. (Gaza Resists). See above.
