The Spin
Pro-Israel narrative
Hezbollah wasted no time siding with Hamas after its brutal and barbaric terror attack on Israeli civilians, and it left the IDF with no choice but to fight back against terrorists who continually attack Israel. Like Hamas, Hezbollah is using civilians as human shields, and it then lies about Israel targeting civilians. These Islamic terror groups are using their own people as pawns, and they seem to be determined to maximize the number of casualties. Israel has no choice but to defend itself against Hezbollah and Hamas terrorists, and it will continue to engage in targeted operations against the groups' leading officials.
Anti-Israel narrative
As Israel continues its rampage on Gaza, killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians, it's also engaging in a similar campaign in Lebanon. While the entire world calls for a ceasefire and a solution that will bring peace, Israel seems hellbent on striking all of its adversaries in the Levant. Israel's recent attacks killed civilians, targeted journalists, and even injured UN peacekeepers. This cannot be allowed to continue, and the world must collectively stand up to restrain Israel. Israel's wars have caused enough damage and death, and it's time for them to end.
