Asking The Easy Questions

It seems that CNN is entirely unable to ask the easy questions.  When I see a report like this:
Dozens of funerals were expected to take place after 60 Palestinians were killed in demonstrations, according to figures provided by the Palestinian Ministry of Health. Among the dead were eight children, including eight-month-old Laila Anwar Ghandour. The health ministry said the baby was asphyxiated by tear gas.
When I see a report like that, the first question that springs to mind is, "What kind of sub-human animal brings a toddler to a violent protest?"   The answer, of course, is that Hamas is well known for their use of human shields.  Eight children dead?  Who thought that bringing children was a good idea?

I have no sympathy for anyone who puts innocent children in danger.  Of course, this is CNN, so the report may not be accurate, nor might even not be based in reality.

Oh, and this can't be Trump's fault.  I've seen his schedule, he wasn't even there.
