Not just recent. I have a foggy memory of this “baby killer” shit making headlines before Dubya got everyone into attack mode after September 11.
And… weren’t Jewish people accused of sacrificing babies back in medieval times?
“THEY KILLED THE BABIES!” is an ancient and effective rallying cry for war.
It’s hard to know about all the wars and genocides, if they aren’t in the standard westernized nations. I only learned of the Rohingya genocide this year.
The best that most of us can do is be like ShittyBeatles and donate to legit charities of your choice.
