You cannot bomb a sovereign nation and then pretend you are the victim when that nation responds. That is not objective reporting, that is narrative manipulation. When the U.S. and Israel initiate strikes and the media labels Iran’s retaliation as “attacks” without context, it distorts reality. Words matter. Framing matters. If you start the fight, you don’t get to control the moral high ground when the other side fights back. That isn’t journalism. That’s gaslighting.
