A bunch of random people with different life stories together inside a tin can flying thanks to physics' magic exploding fuel at 800km/h. It's something that a lot of people can relate to as millions fly every single day not really expecting to die, specially over a war zone. That's why we pay attention. The massacre in Gaza is pretty important as well, but an entirely different story.
noun
an indiscriminate and brutal slaughter of many people.
verb
deliberately and brutally kill (many people).

Tell me how what happens in Gaza is consistent with "indiscriminate" and "deliberately" as long as only launch sites and weapons caches are targeted and warnings are sent out well in advance, something I haven't heard any other army has ever done so consistently before. (And I will happily tell you that I don't think the Israelis are without fault. I just want this sick twisting of referential frames to stay away from hn.)
