    White House Twitter: Look at this video we took while we bombed them

    The POTUS: We love killing. We will kill all of them and take their stuff.

    Western media: It’s hard to tell what could have caused this. This is a very complicated situation

    I don’t see the issue here. AP doesn’t obscure Israel’s involvement. They simply state the facts, which are that Israel announced an attack, and then an attack followed.

    Propaganda would be omitting or inventing information.

      They are very much obscuring Israel’s involvement by putting them as a sidenote at the very end and using the word “warn” instead of “threaten”.

    Doesn’t the AP not report something as fact if it hasn’t been explicitly revealed already? That’s how we got the meme of Vance being a couch fucker.
