US media give their readers and viewers the impression that Hamas declares its targeting of civilian population centers. That is farthest from the truth. In fact, Hamas often declares its military targets but that never gets reported. Compare to how Arab media report for example: this is the Twitter account of New TV of Lebanon:
It says: "Qassam battalions declare the rocketing of an eavesdropping base 8200 with 3 Grad missiles".
