Gaza and the lack of empathy

The ongoing crisis in the Gaza Strip and the lack of international concern in itself is a matter of concern for any right minded person. The war between Israel and Palestine has escalated and innocent lives are at stake. The sheer lack of concern of the world powers to the woes of the civilians of the Gaza Strip in itself is a matter of concern and of shame. The media ignoring the plight of these people raises the question whether human rights are not for all people? Whether everyone does not enjoy the same rights and privileges? Whether freedom is for the elite few? These questions are to be asked by every human being and ponder upon the questions of equality, freedom, life and liberty.
