From the BBC and its Editor’s Blog (formerly and futurely known as an Editorial Page):
- Around 30 to 40 people are killed every day in the current Israel/Lebanon conflict.
- About 100 people are killed every day in the violence in Iraq.
- And 1,200 people are killed every day in the war in the Congo.
Each is enough to daze you for the day. Together, worse. Being honest about the order of importance given and we give to each, worse still.
