DW Finds 'Attacks' in Lebanon, Not Bombs Dropped By Israel
Deutsche Welle covers rising fears in Lebanon over 'renewed escalation,' glossing over the fact that Israel regularly conducts military operations, including alleged drone strikes and shelling, across the Lebanese border. (Remember the 2006 invasion?). While the article mentions Hezbollah, it conveniently forgets that one side possesses an air force funded by billions in U.S. aid, often with
weapons approved by politicians like Senator Risch, who received $10,000 from AIPAC in 2023, according to OpenSecrets.org. It's fascinating how a military invasion is reframed as 'escalation' when the powerful party acts. Apparently, only certain 'attacks' are worthy of naming the responsible party. How many times must Lebanon 'fear escalation' before the media points out the consistent source?
