For such a thing alone, Israel would have the right to declare war on Lebanon, with all the consequences. Despite this, <strong>the Israeli attacks have been very precise and have managed to decapitate the Hezbollah leadership in 10 days<\/strong>. No other army goes to such lengths as the Israel Defense Forces to avoid civilian casualties.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What El Pa\u00eds also fails to mention is that Hezbollah uses civilians as human shields, just like Hamas<\/strong>, by locating its facilities in civilian residential areas. That is indeed a war crime, but the socialist daily does not even mention it.<\/p>\n<p><big>El Pa\u00eds avoids referring to Hezbollah as a 'terrorist'<\/big><\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, <strong>El Pa\u00eds describes Hezbollah as a \"militia-party\" and refers to its terrorists as \"militiamen.\"<\/strong> The socialist daily also forgets to mention that <a href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/ES\/TXT\/PDF\/?uri=CELEX:32022R1230&from=EN\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Hezbollah is designated a terrorist organization by the European Union, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.state.gov\/foreign-terrorist-organizations\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the United States,<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.publicsafety.gc.ca\/cnt\/ntnl-scrt\/cntr-trrrsm\/lstd-ntts\/crrnt-lstd-ntts-en.aspx#51\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Canada<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><big>US 'eliminated' Bin Laden but Israel 'murdered' Nasrallah, according to El Pa\u00eds<\/big><\/p>\n<p>The double standard when it comes to talking about deaths is a constant in the history of this newspaper. <a href=\"https:\/\/elpais.com\/internacional\/2011\/05\/02\/actualidad\/1304287204_850215.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">In 2011, El Pa\u00eds headlined: <em>\"The United States kills Osama Bin Laden\"<\/em><\/a>.

Both Hezbollah and Qatar are united by a fanatical hatred against Israel in particular and against Jews. In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jpost.com\/diaspora\/antisemitism\/article-814419\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the Qatari channel Al Jazeera openly displays its antisemitism<\/a>. <strong>PRISA's newspaper should be ashamed of having such a sponsor<\/strong>, but to be ashamed you have to be ashamed.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, it is alarming that a newspaper that is so manipulative and so blatantly takes sides against the only democracy in the Middle East is <strong>a media outlet very close to the socialist government of Pedro S\u00e1nchez<\/strong>, which El Pa\u00eds supports against all odds.
