Why is Hezbollah not defending themselves against a large scale israeli attack?
Why is Hezbollah not launching a "pre-emptive" attack?
Why is Hezbollah not "launching rockets 'in self defense'?
Because loaded language is used in favor of israel, not against it.
Your alternative titles really highlight how little you value factuality.
Hezbollah did not claim to be launching a pre-emptive attack. And claiming that they launched a pre-emptive attack after they were already attacked is ... Weird.
No one is reporting that Hezbollah was launching these rockets in self defence, because Hezbollah has already let it be known that their attack was a retaliation for the murder of one of their commanders in july.
No news source worth their salt is going to use those titles, because it's straight up inventing alternate facts.
Your 4 examples of what you want to portray as "non credible reporting" are professionals. Unlike you, they're not just going to invent news to push their narrative. Yes they have their biases, but unlike your alternate facts, their reporting is based on actual facts.
