Antiwar

 Antiwar

    When thinking about the topic of war we usually see stories of it on the news with pictures of survivors. However we never really hear much about antiwar activists in the main news stream. While looking through the antiwar websites I came across two articles. "Israel Kills Dozens More in Gaza, Including an Orthopedic Surgeon" and "Airwars Finds Israel Killed Over 5,000 Civilians in Gaza in October 2023". While reading these to articles they has me very surprised. These articles both were very detailed and shared different information that we wouldn't necessarily be seeing while watching the morning news. These articles had a lot more facts and details about what is actually going on. 

    Another thing that I noticed was that these websites weren't like any other news website I have seen before. They were very jumbled and had a ton of words when you opened the websites. Different head lines appeared with many sub-headlines to other articles related to them. The articles also all mostly seemed to be short but had a bunch of information within them. A few of the articles as well had pictures to see what was really going on. 

        After reading these two articles and making these observations it has completely shifted my perception on how wars are put out through the news and media. Seeing how much the government and the military see when there at war that isn't shared is shocking. The United States is a very patriotic country where we take pride within our military. However most of the time we are not getting the whole story it seems like. The antiwar activist stories most of the time get hided and not put out within the media.
