Does the press give to much press to terrible events?

[IamInuit]

The line seems fine here. Even the Israeli PM asking French Jews to move to Israel if they want to be safe was over played. When 200 are killed by similar minded people in Nigeria it barely makes the news and is a blurb in the world section of newspapers but when a few westerners get it all of a sudden its 24/7.

Even the different coverage of the two events must add fuel. Like we have a higher moral worth then they do.


And it just seems like these shit bags are winning when our society starts to change those very fundamental things that we say they are trying to erode. Are we not doing exactly what they want us to do. Cameras everywhere, soldiers in front of malls. Even in Canada the phrase "ever since 911" has been used for everything you can possibly think of in everyday life.

It many ways our societies are turning into over governed police states from the municipal level up because of them. Every freedom we fight for infringed by them even when they fail. Its why I think something drastic may have to be done but first we should try just cutting ourselves off from the middle east completely. Let the chips fall were they may.

I think Oil is the antichrist.
