Twenty-two-year-old Shir Georgy went missing after the militant group attacked the music festival near Kibbutz Re’im last Saturday.

Georgy’s aunt, Michal Bouganim, says the family is a mess and heartbroken.

    Your vote totals tell me most people believe Palestinian lives don’t count, which is borne out by US policy towards Israel.

      Or because it’s moronic whataboutism and kind of sociopathic to drop comments like that under such news? It’s clear that you people don’t care about the victims on either side, just what kind of political agenda you can push with it. It’s disgusting.

        Did you know that girl? Will this article console her family? Reporting one casualty without mentioning the 2200 Palestinian deaths masks the severity of the situation. You feign concern for one Canadian while dismissing the ongoing war crimes. It’s clear that you don’t care about the the victims in Palestine, just what kind of political agenda you can push with it. It’s disgusting.

          It’s a Canadian news site, reporting over the death of a Canadian citizen. But then again, you’re arguing in bad faith and know this full well, so I don’t even need to explain this. Unlike you, I do actually care for the victims in Palestine, I just don’t use them as a tool for anti Jewish propaganda like you do.

            I am Jewish. You, and western media are using any and everything to distract from the fact that Holocaust 2.0 is about to happen. And I’m in the wrong? Get a fucking grip on your humanity. I’m collapse aware and I’m a big proponent of climate change. But this singular issue should be the only thing that is reported on until the people in Palestine are safe. Anything less is sophistry and complicit with genocide. It’s not the reporting on news that is Canadian centric. It’s the failure to put it in context with the war crimes that are currently happening.

              Reporting on the Hamas victims is doing that? Okay. Maybe stop being an Hamas apologist and then we can talk.
