why is the world suddenly focused on the irsali-palestine conflict and hamas group? - eviltoast

From what I can gather this conflict as been going on a long time and the Hamas group has existed for a while too. Why are all the news cycles suddenly focusing on this the past few weeks?

    Have you heard about Yemen recently?

    No? Then it must be quiet there. No deaths at all.

      A cynical news producer would say “Yemen? Who cares? Muslims killing other Muslims is about as interesting as gang members killing other gang members. Give me Muslims and Jews killing each other, though, and we’re talking RATINGS, baby!”
