Targeting the UN
Israeli soldiers were kidnapped by Hezbollah.
Claims that the UN looked on and did nothing are slanderous lies. In fact the
UN didn't act passively to that attack. They were quite active in filming the
kidnapping. The UN then, of course, lied about even knowing about the
crime.
Now this strange person from
some third world dirt-hole country that dresses nicely and claims leadership of
the UN wants to punish Israel for killing two UN observers at the very post
where they filmed this crime. He's even made statements claiming he will send
an armed force to stop the war. I'm not sure where he got this sudden power
from, I seem to remember the UN having to vote on things before
acting.
Israel's modus operandi has
been to always hit enemies harder than they have been hit. I think it is
completely consistent with their past behavior for them to drop a few artillery
shells on a UN post that is actively used to support attacks on them. I think
Israel is wise to deny that they did it on purpose, just as the US denies that
it purposefully bombed the Chinese embassy in the
Balkans.
But I don't for a second
believe either claim. Nor am I sympathetic to cries of objection to those
attacks.
