He's stating the obvious. I already see more headlines about Israel and Gaza than Ukraine. Even the daily article with Ukraine updates was axxed and replaced with Israel+Gaza updates. The Ukraine war was in people's minds for so long because it had a direct impact on prices (mostly food). Now that the prices are going down, Europe has built up a stock of weapons, and fighting might slow down in the winter, there needs to be another shiny conflict the world can feast upon and Hamas delivered it on a silver platter.

Just like climate change, until there's something happening right at our door, we (people) won't give two shits about what's happening abroad.
