The Spin

Pro-Palestine narrative

The death of any civilian is a terribly tragic occurrence, but it is simply impossible to separate the attack in Tel Aviv from Israel's brutal invasion of Jenin. Palestinians are treated as colonial subjects, yet when they fight back against one of the world's most advanced armies, they are labelled terrorists. Israel must end the occupation if it wants to solve the root causes of attacks like this.

Pro-Israel narrative

Israeli society must continue to prepare for and defend itself from Palestinian terror attacks by rooting out Palestinian militants, wherever they may hide. Though the media tend to misrepresent the facts, Israel's operation in Jenin is strictly a surgical move to eliminate Palestinian terrorists who threaten Israeli civilians. There is no comparison between Israeli forces, who strive for peace, and Palestinian terrorists, who fight for a never-ending conflict.
