(103,624 posts)I did not write the ", but not Israel" part. Yet you added it, inside the quotation marks, and proceeded to say it's inaccurate. Well, yes, you made it up, and it's inaccurate. "People", in the context of the post, is the ICC and the US government. And my point is that, with those people doing more about Sudan, that the public, or the media, is going to spend less time noting "both sides in the Sudan war are bad, but both are sanctioned and called out by our western governments, and international bodies" - which is a message of "our representatives continue to do the basic right thing", and more time noting "western governments, and the US government in particular, may condemn the awful Hamas, but they're far too lenient on the odious Netanyahu, and his deliberate campaign of starvation being waged against the people of Gaza, plus his daily bombing of them".
And I think you are capable of understanding human nature, despite your written claims here that the way an average person thinks is a mystery to you. But your claimed inability gives you an excuse to say this human nature is "discriminatory", as if being fair to Netanyahu and his government would require letting them kill tens of thousands of people.
