There aren’t many places young people can go for news even if they were inclined to search out something reliable. (I wonder what the people here consider a reliable news organization. Many here don’t even like Fox.)

All news organizations are suspect.

The problem is kids aren’t taught history anymore. They rely on media to get their view of the world.

My 25 year old son watches Al Jezerra and YouTube.
He is very smart and is an Associate Scientist at a major Pharma corp.

He is against this Israel War in Gaza. I try to speak to him about it. He believes the Israelis have been oppressing the Palestinians since 1948.

I try to explain to him the Israel side of the middle east. Plus I try to explain to him that the Christians were supposed to have the Lebanon. The Muslims were supposed to have everywhere east of the Jordan. The Jews were given the area west of the Jordan to the sea. Gaza was part of Egypt.

I also point out that not everyone in Israel is Jewish. 18% are Muslims. 2% are Christian. 1.5% Druze.

That all the Israelis want is to be allowed to exist. To live in peace.
