• Quotes Trump's threats and ultimatums with distancing verbs
• Foregrounds opposition and backlash to Trump's actions
• Highlights negative consequences of Trump's policies
• Uses neutral-to-critical framing in English headlines, more adversarial in Arabic

The outlet often reports Trump's statements factually, but the selection heavily emphasizes threats, backlash, and negative fallout. Arabic headlines are more directly critical (e.g., 'sarcasm', 'division', 'calls for impeachment'). English headlines are more neutral but still focus on conflict and criticism. The entity's own quoted content is aggressive, but the outlet's framing is skeptical rather than celebratory.

• foregrounds Trump's threats and aggressive rhetoric
• highlights domestic political conflict over Iran policy
• uses distancing framing for US actions (e.g., 'war crimes' threat, 'historic' aid decline)
• includes critical external commentary (e.g., European, Iranian sources)

Coverage is mixed: some headlines report US institutional actions neutrally (e.g., Supreme Court ruling, FBI cooperation), but the dominant focus on Trump's Iran policy and domestic opposition skews critical. The entity is 'US' broadly, so Trump's actions heavily influence stance. No celebratory or promotional framing of US found.

• amplifies Iranian officials' statements as authoritative
• frames Iran as victim of US-Israeli aggression
• uses dramatic language about Iranian suffering and resilience
• highlights Iranian diplomatic and military agency

Headlines include both Arabic and English coverage; Arabic headlines tend to be more sympathetic, while English ones are more neutral. The entity is a country, not a single actor, so stance is toward the Iranian state and its leadership. Some headlines report Iranian officials' threats or warnings without evaluative framing, but the overall selection foregrounds Iranian voices and frames Iran as under attack, which tilts positive.

• foregrounds Netanyahu's failures and backlash
• uses distancing or critical framing ('faces backlash', 'إفساد الهدنة', 'يُسقط لبنان في بحر من الدم')
• highlights international isolation and legal troubles
• amplifies voices critical of Israel (e.g., op-eds, foreign journalists)

The outlet often quotes Netanyahu directly, but the editorial framing and selection of headlines consistently emphasize negative consequences, legal problems, and criticism of his actions, indicating a skeptical stance toward the Israeli government and its leader.

• frames Netanyahu as initiating endless wars
• uses distancing verbs like 'says', 'calls for', 'y'awiz' (instructs)
• highlights domestic backlash and legal troubles
• includes critical analysis from commentators

Some headlines quote Netanyahu authoritatively (e.g., #1, #18), but the overall selection foregrounds criticism, legal issues, and negative consequences of his actions. The Arabic headlines especially use evaluative framing ('إفساد الهدنة', 'حرب نتنياهو الأبدية').

• foregrounds civilian casualties and destruction in Lebanon
• quotes Hezbollah actions without distancing verbs
• frames Israeli strikes as disproportionate or undermining peace
• uses Arabic headlines that amplify Hezbollah's military capability

The outlet's stance toward Lebanon as a country is complicated by its simultaneous coverage of Hezbollah as a legitimate political and military actor; the entity 'LB' (Lebanon) is treated as a victim of Israeli aggression and a site of resistance, with Hezbollah's role presented as defensive or retaliatory rather than aggressive. The Arabic-language headlines are more explicitly pro-Hezbollah than English ones, but overall the outlet frames Lebanon sympathetically.

• foregrounds civilian casualties and humanitarian crisis
• frames Israeli actions as attacks or violations
• amplifies Palestinian voices and experiences
• uses terms like 'martyrdom' and 'occupation'

The outlet's stance is positive toward the entity (PS, the Palestinian people/state) as it consistently highlights their suffering, rights, and resistance, while criticizing Israeli actions. However, some headlines are neutral or factual, and the entity is not a single actor but a collective, so stance is inferred from editorial sympathy.
