ABC, CBS, and the AP have all pushed news alerts with this “defensive” framing.
STOP IT. You can’t defensively bomb someone else’s home. That’s not a thing. That’s like me driving a backhoe through my neighbor’s yard, torching their back porch, and then calling it a renovation.

In the last 6 months of the war with Iran, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth hasn't given a single briefing to the Pentagon press corps. Meanwhile, the media have caught the Trump regime in lie after lie about the war. So why do the media highlight the regime's spin about a "defensive operation"?
