Here's a random description of sources, with an illustration of what's happening right at the time I'm posting this, in a not particularly important news item. https://www-aljazeera-net.translate.goog/?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en https://www-aljazeera-net.translate.goog/?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_t... (yes, this strange URL is just Google translate translating the arabic frontpage of Al-Jazeera. Don't worry, they're not going to stop the double speak) vs https://www.aljazeera.com/ https://www.aljazeera.com/ Here's my take: Arabic: https://www-aljazeera-net.translate.goog/news/2024/5/6/%d8%ad%d8%b2%d8%a8-%d8%a7%d9%84%d9%84%d9%87-%d9%8a%d9%82%d8%b5%d9%81-%d8%a8%d8%b9%d8%b4%d8%b1%d8%a7%d8%aa-%d8%a7%d9%84%d8%b5%d9%88%d8%a7%d8%b1%d9%8a%d8%ae-%d9%82%d8%a7%d8%b9%d8%af%d8%a9?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en https://www-aljazeera-net.translate.goog/news/2024/5/6/%d8%a... Proudly declaring that Hezbollah attacks the Golan Heights of Israel with "booby-trapped drones". One might point out that booby trapping weapons is illegal under international law and a serious warcrime. A warcrime that even Russia, who see no problem with white phosphorous and poison gas, refuses to commit in Ukraine. Why? There's no telling who will be killed by booby trapped weapons (Booby trapped weapons legislation is about that will explode on impact, then explode again or otherwise injure people when it's getting cleaned up or examined. Because civilians might clean up weapons, or children might find them, this is a big no-no in international law) The whole article is about using 10 different sources to brag how effective the attack was, and it just keeps and keeps going on about that. It mentions various sources, each more far fetched than the last, how "these types of rockets" cause enormous damage, death and injuries. It has no mention of this being a response to Israeli attacks, nor does it have any mention that Israel made a counterstrike. It concludes by actually stating that the military campaign by Hezbollah is about to defeat the IDF. English, same news event: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/4/13/lebanons-hezbollah-fires-dozens-of-rockets-at-israeli-positions https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/4/13/lebanons-hezbollah-... In this, the "booby-trapped" part is gone, they are reporting it, pretending to be neutral about it (as opposed to in arabic, where they are anything but neutral) and the whole article starts trying to cause doubts about whether the attack happened at all. Prominently featured in the article is that the Isreali military states no injuries where reported, and all the sources are suddenly gone. Instead, there is focus on that this is a "tit-for-tat" attack, that was really Israel's fault. In other words, the article focuses on how this was a totally ineffective attack, that was justified because of Israeli killings in Lebanon, that absolutely does not merit any kind of counterattack. In case you're wondering, Israeli press reported the same event: https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2024-05-06/ty-article-live/idf-three-soldiers-killed-near-gaza-border/0000018f-4ba4-dcda-abcf-6ba7979b0006?liveBlogItemId=1540534882#1540534882 https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2024-05-06/ty-article-li... https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-800017 https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-800017 https://www.ynetnews.com/article/s1joamlmc#autoplay https://www.ynetnews.com/article/s1joamlmc#autoplay Summary: 1) 30 rockets (al Jazeera and Hezbollah reported many drones) 2) NO details, no statements from Hezbollah 3) it hit a town, Metulla, not a military base, either zero (Haaretz, Ynetnews) or two (Jerusalem Post) persons wounded, both civilians. The town, by the way, is in the foothills of the Golan heights at best, it is very much not actually in the Golan heights. But it's very close to Lebanon. 3) The IDF executed a military counterstrike, against military targets (which means Hezbollah launch sites)
