The Spin

Pro-Israel narrative

Israel’s efforts continue to degrade the military capacity of the Iranian regime. The latest strikes by the IAF have neutralized over 30 targets, including launch systems, launch sites, and missile storage and infrastructure, in addition to reaffirming Israel’s aerial superiority. The IDF’s actions are essential to reducing the threat posed by Iran and protecting Israeli civilians.

Pro-Iran narrative

Iran is not the aggressor in this conflict, nor is it the party that is deliberately undermining regional security and stability with its actions; this, in both cases, is Israel. Iran only seeks a peaceful resolution to the crisis that respects its sovereignty, though it will not let Israel’s unwarranted aggression go unanswered and will defend itself to the utmost of its ability.
