Family of a Canadian-Israeli woman, who was missing since Hamas militants ambushed a music festival in southern Isreal last Saturday, says she has died(opens in a new tab).

Twenty-two-year-old Shir Georgy went missing after the militant group attacked the music festival near Kibbutz Re’im last Saturday.

Georgy’s aunt, Michal Bouganim, says the family is a mess and heartbroken.

    I’m not saying you’re incorrect about the US media but Canada is quite different culturally. When citizens are killed in terrorist or other attacks our news will regularly cover it. We have some underreporting when it comes to gang violence (especially drug crimes or crimes in immigrant communities) but we’re a lot more protective of our people up here.

      or crimes against your own native minorities, lol if you think Canada is all that different

      directly relevant where’s the report about the Canadian UN worker killed in the Gaza air raid?

      but all of this is beside the point I replied to

      dudes point was 1000s of Palestinians killed yearly and its a blurb on page 3, 1 pretty white girl and it’s front page news

      my point was its conveniently posted to tie into conflating fighting terrorists with a ground assault in Gaza and justifying the coming resulting atrocities

        Up here in Canada we have a national holiday called Truth and Reconciliation, we’re facing our demons. America is still celebrating fucking Columbus day.

        Fuck off.

          my dude, some holiday doesn’t make it better, your country isn’t facing shit, just like the US

          look up the quality of life statistics and that huge gulf

          as an impacted native, fuck yourself
