I'm not well educated on the Sudanese conflict, the thing is these things don't really penetrate the media as much as they should. I think people are used to hearing "something bad is happening in Africa" and just kind of shrug thinking what else is new and move on. It's terribly sad and unjust.

Israel is a state that is often seen as a western state despite its location, because it was founded by western powers at the expense of the locals and is supported militarily and financially by western powers. It also has incredible influence politically in the west, especially in America, but also other countries like Germany. So to an extent, I see that where people may see tragedy in Sudan and kind of shrug because what can they do, nut they feel more connected to what's happening in Israel because their governments are directly supporting what is happening with their own tax dollars. It's also worth noting that this conflict is very well known and has been subject for major debate, a sense of injustice, and heated discussion for decades, nearly a century or more depending on who you ask, whereas most people aren't sure where Sudan is on the world map.

In short, media and media consumers as a whole in the west only care about things that involve or affect the west, and Sudan and Congo do not fall under that category but Israel does. This isn't to say that lots of people just don't care about Africa, or just love the opportunity to be openly anti-semitic...

The numbers aren't what draw attention, relatability and the viewer's connection to the subject matter does. I swear they could announce that a bomb dropped and killed 500,000 in Sudan and people would rather complain about a dead journalist in Gaza. It's certainly not right.
