He's stating the obvious. I already see more headlines about Israel and Gaza than Ukraine. Even the daily article with Ukraine updates was axxed and replaced with Israel+Gaza updates. The Ukraine war was in people's minds for so long because it had a direct impact on prices (mostly food). Now that the prices are going down, Europe has built up a stock of weapons, and fighting might slow down in the winter, there needs to be another shiny conflict the world can feast upon and Hamas delivered it on a silver platter.
Just like climate change, until there's something happening right at our door, we (people) won't give two shits about what's happening abroad.
Didn't they destroy it in the first place?
