but to answer your specific question, I call myself someone who is deeply saddened by the suffering and dying of my fellow human beings due to senseless conflict.
Now you have a nice evening.

5. It's a great example of what's gone wrong with the media.

Nowhere in the article does it explain that Israel is launching guided missles from fighter jets with specific targets in mind, nuclear sites, missle sites, commanders etc.

Meanwhile Iran is just lobbing missles at anything in Israel, apartments buildings, strip malls, schools, playgrounds.

Just remarkable.

Are you sure that's fair?

Reuters has at least eleven reports of Israel-Iran attacks.

There are also four front page NYT reports, and four front page Guardian reports, each with a Live report that gives updates.
This OP report is only designed to show/summarize the attacks visually.
In its main report, The Guardian lists a few hits, one of them being in Tel Aviv, near Israel's defense buildings.
