All hospitals are not equal. The media and international community display double-standards in how they address attacks on Gaza versus Ukraine
Israel's deliberate attacks on Gaza's healthcare system and hospitals are the worst of any conflict in the world at this time, yet this is not reflected in the corporate media's coverage, nor in the response of much of the international community. While Western leaders instantly render judgments and condemn Russia, the opposite is the case when it comes to Israeli attacks on Palestinian civilian infrastructure. In the case of Israel's attack on Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, the US government even falsely suggested that the medical complex was being used as a Hamas military base and hence justified the invasion of the hospital. Following numerous massacres at the hospital, Washington refused to apologise for its role in facilitating the Israeli assaults and has failed to issue a single condemnation.
