US-Israel Joint Military Operations Continue, Palestinian Families Grieve During Eid al-Fitr
As Eid al-Fitr began, The New Arab reported on heightened grief in Palestinian villages, implicitly linking it to recent 'Iran-Israel war' dynamics.

Mainstream outlets, such as The New Arab, often present a false dichotomy, portraying a bilateral 'Iran-Israel' conflict, thereby minimizing the extensive US role and its historical pattern of intervention.
