AP Calls Terrorist Leader Nasrallah "Charismatic and Shrewd;" The Washington Post Calls Him "A Moral Compass"

Here is just a partial list of the murders perpetrated by one of history's most prolific serial killers:

Note that Hezballah has killed more Americans than any other terrorist organization, at least before 9/11.

The AP looks right past the thousands of murders he's responsible for and praises him as "charismatic and shrewd."

Associated Press called out for headline on death of terror leader: 'Charismatic and shrewd'


X users contrasted to the headline for the death of a GOP senator: 'Former US Sen. Jim Inhofe, defense hawk who called human-caused climate change a 'hoax,' dies at 89'

Social media users blasted the Associated Press for its recent obituary headline for Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, describing it as kinder to the terror leader than the outlet's obituary for late U.S. senator Jim Inhofe.

The AP News headline marking Nasrallah's death this week referred to the Hezbollah boss as "charismatic and shrewd," while the outlet's headline for Inhofe's death in July painted the late lawmaker in a bad light, reminding readers he "called human-caused climate change a 'hoax.'"

Observant X users noticed the difference in tone between the two obituaries. Prominent conservative account @AGHamilton29 remarked, "This is actual enemy of the people stuff." He also noted that the article left out Hezbollah's "entire history of terrorism, describes their mass starvation and murder as 'taken part in the conflict in neighboring Syria', and tries to paint him as a 'moderate.'"


The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that Nasrallah was killed in its strike against the group's headquarters in Lebanon on Friday. According to the military group, Nasrallah was responsible for the murder of many Israeli civilians and soldiers, as well as the planning and execution of thousands of terrorist activities around the world.

The IDF said Nasrallah was one of Hezbollah's co-founders as well as its central decision-maker and the strategic leader. The terror group confirmed his death following the IDF's announcement.

The Associated Press published its obituary on Friday for Nasrallah, with the original headline, "Charismatic and shrewd: A look at longtime Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah." An updated version of the piece featured a new headline, stating, "Who was longtime Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah?" But an Internet Archive search confirmed the existence of the more generous title.

In addition to the controversial headline, the outlet waited before referring Hezbollah as a terror group, only referring to the organization's terrorist designation by the U.S. at around the 14th paragraph of the article.

Rather, the outlet referred to Hezbollah as a "Lebanese militant group," and "one of the most powerful paramilitary groups in the Middle East." The report also described the Nasrallah as a "fiery, charismatic leader."

He died as he lived: Fiery.

The New York Times: Nasrallah just "wanted equality."

The Muslim terrorism apologists still have the "American" ones beat: They're saying that the Jews only managed to pull off this coup because their intelligence service do deals with genies.
