I editorialised the title because fuck all these clowns not calling a spade a spade.

Original title:

Live: IDF confirms 'targeted raids' inside Lebanon as huge blasts heard across Beirut

I wish anyone at the ABC had the guts to publish a headline as accurate as that.

I would say 'mods won't like it', but the sidebar for this comm doesn't actually have any rules so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Usually I'd lean towards removing an editorialized title such as this, but under the circumstances I'm not confident the title isn't 100% correct.

It's infuriating to see the same headline across all the major agencies and networks. Not a single one, that I've yet to find, deviating from whatever IDF tweet or press release they're referencing.

It’s seriously so fucked.

Most accurate headline I've seen in a long time.

Didn't expect to see that headline, you're pretty brave OP. I respect you very much.
