The Spin

Pro-Israel narrative

The military operation was a necessary defensive measure against armed terrorists who attacked Israeli troops first. Israel must move to secure its interests and prevent weapons from falling into hostile hands, as it will not tolerate terrorists operating along its border.

Anti-Israel narrative

The Israeli attack represents an illegal occupation and aggression against Syrian sovereignty, deliberately targeting civilian areas to displace the population, much like in Gaza. Furthermore, Israeli rhetoric regarding "protecting minorities" is a cynical pretext for territorial expansion.
