The terrible bombings in Madrid have got the world´s attention, but I
can´t but think of the massacre in Uganda last month: 240 refugees murdered by the LRA. 40 more than in Madrid, but the difference in
media attention... I read somewhere that the death of an Israeli gets
20 times more publicity than the death of a Palestinian, and it seems
to be the same when we are talking about Spanish and Ugandans:
Not all victims are equal.
