दोहरा मापदंड / Double Standard  – Kaushal Kishore

 

हम अनगिनत ग़लतियों के बाद भी खुद से प्यार करते हैं,

लेकिनऔरों की एक गलती पर उनसे घृणा करने लगते हैं…

यही दोहरा मापदंड हमें कहीं अंदर तक आहत कर देता है, 

हमारे दिलों को अंतहीन दर्द और अहंकार में फँसा लेता है…

🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂

We forgive ourselves through every misstep,

Yet turn away from others for just one mistake… 

This double standard wounds us deep inside,

Trapping our hearts in endless pain and pride…

Media Bias in the Israeli War on Gaza and Lebanon | street art united states

The portrayal of Israel as a perpetual victim of unprovoked aggression, while Palestinians are viewed as either perpetrators or collateral damage, shapes the narrative of the conflict. It also dehumanizes Palestinians, reducing their suffering to a mere footnote in the broader geopolitical narrative.

Lina Mounzer, a Lebanese writer, poignantly captures this sentiment: “Ask any Arab what the most painful realization of the last year has been, and it is this: that we have discovered the extent of our dehumanization to such a degree that it’s impossible to function in the world in the same way.”

The Western media’s propagandistic use of language reinforces this dehumanization, ensuring that Palestinian suffering remains invisible while Israeli deaths are foregrounded as tragedies. As the conflict continues, the need for balanced and humane reporting grows ever more urgent.
