Western headlines after Israel violates the ceasefire in Lebanon in one day
the 'ceasefire' was violated not by gunfire ?? what the actual fuck??
- From 04:00 hours (IST/EET), November 27, 2024 forward, the Government of Lebanon will prevent Hezbollah and all other armed groups in the territory of Lebanon from carrying out any operations against Israel, and Israel will not carry out any offensive military operations against Lebanese targets, including civilian, military, or other state targets, in the territory of Lebanon by land, air, or sea.
We are going to see some incredible mental gymnastics in the coming hours.
"It was defensive! They moved stuff!"
Very similar to the Lemmy tankies arguing that Russia was forced to attack Ukraine by the Ukranian crimes of protesting and voting.
that shit makes me question the value of this platform. my Ukrainian friends don't take shit like that kindly, and i love them too much not to also be like, "hey. fuck off"
I feel bad for all the Lebanese who fled to Syria and came back during this “ceasefire” only to have to leave again.
They shouldn't have violated the ceasefire by returning to Northern Israel Their Homes a DMZ.
/s, obviously I hope.
"Somebody moved! Fire!"
Would be proper for Israel to admit that the ceasefire was violated because they started to shoot.
FUCK ISRAEL
Israel bombed Lebanon twice with airstrikes in the last hour. No retaliation from Hezbollah so far. The Reuters headline:
I accidentally jinxed it a couple of days ago when I saw the post about a ceasefire and I commented "Good Luck." My bad, guys.
Oh there were probably a few million of us muttering that.
Will Trump's team continue to claim this as his achievement?

What?
I only see articles constantly, incessantly, calling out Israel for being the incarnation of evil in the most biased one-sided hypocritical manner possible. I honestly couldn't say the last time I read an article that was even slightly biased in favour of Israel.
One of these days, I wouldn't mind reading one of these alleged 'Western headlines' (naturally, that is, not in a cherry-picked screenshot), if for nothing else than for a change in perspective. Personally, I don't really have strong opinions either way in the Israel-Hamas-Hezbollah conflict, though I sympathise for all the innocent victims. I truly wish for a return to the Journalistic Creed though; journalists should deliver factual information in as non-biased manner as possible, they shouldn't be acting as politicians trying to manipulate people by twisting words to build their narrative.
Absolutely sick of reading nonsensical trash like this. Only a fucking blind idiot would believe that 'Western media' as a matter of course favours Israel. I guarantee, for every 1 'Western' headline supporting Israel, there'll be a dozen others decrying them.
Okay. Go to the nytimes website. Search for Israel. And then look at the language used for Israeli Actions compared to Hamas Actions.
"Conducts military strike" vs. "Fires rockets" "X palestinians left dead" vs. "Israelis killed"
And then go to Fox news or any of the more conservative newsites. Look at german news outlets. "The incarnation of evil" is a treatment reserved for Russia and Hamas in these circles, Israel is more like a morally wonky friend, who is still supported.
The further you go back, the less the actual negative press about Israel, despite the nature of the conflict from the beginning.
Bullshit.
It's easy to cherry pick articles to generate a false narrative by navigating to the most conservative outlets.
Why don't you try and search any popular search engine for 'Israel Lebanon News' in a private browser (to remove yourself from a browser bubble) and then try to claim that the wording in Western headlines favours Israel. All I see, in consecutive order of search results is: 'Israel launches first airstrike...', 'Israel forces open fire in Lebanon...', 'UN troops patrol Israel-Lebanon border...', 'Lebanon deploys army on 2nd day...', 'Israel fires on Southern Lebanon...', 'Israel conducts first strike on Lebanon'.
Note that 4 of these portray Israel as the antagonist, 1 is neutral, and 1 portrays Lebanon as the antagonist.
