I am sorry. I may be too emotional here. Tears are streaming

Yesterday, after an emotional (and highly sincere) tribute to Tatars by the Washington Post, the New York Times (known for its global attention to the plight of Muslims worldwide and for its sensitivity to victimization of Muslims) has another tribute to Tatars, the 12% of the Crimea population.  The New York Times is way too emotional here but it is quite understandable. DO you notice how emotional the paper is about the plight of 20% of the population of the Israeli occupation state?  And don't tell me that the paper did not write emotional articles about victimization of Muslims in CAR or in Burma because the paper was just too busy especially in its non-stop coverage of the ship of Iranian nuclear weapons that were intercepted by the Israeli terrorist army was it was making its way toward the besieged Gaza strip.  Sometimes when I read a piece like this, I say to myself: I think that US media are way too emotional in their love for Muslims around the world.  I mean, if only they show such sensitivity toward other minorities around the world.
