"We want to find out why this United Nations post was attacked and also why it remained manned during what is now, more or less, a war during obvious danger to these individuals,"

It's because the UN decided to use those men as human shields.

Ok does this link up with this:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1672863/posts

Canadian killed from UN force complained his position shielding Hizbullah Dr. Aaron Lerner Date: 26 July 2006

"...the tragic loss of a soldier yesterday who I happen to know and I think probably is from my Regiment. We've received e-mails from him a few days ago and he described the fact that he was taking within - in one case - three meters of his position "for tactical necessity - not being targeted". Now that's veiled speech in the military and what he was telling us was Hizbullah fighters were all over his position and the IDF were (sic) targeting them and that's a favorite trick by people who don't have representation in the UN. They use the UN as shields knowing that they can't be punished for it."

Retired Canadian Major General Lewis MacKenzie interviewed on CBC Toronto radio 26 July 2006 For recording: http://cbc.ca/metromorning/media/20060726LMCJUL26.ram

The UN needed to get them out of there. After all, when their own corrupt asses were car bombed once in Iraq, they pulled out.

Hezzbolah was using the site as cover and the Israelis knew it and took it out. The Israelis were justified in taking it out. Also note how little was said a while ago when a UN post INSIDE ISRAEL was destroyed by Hezbollah Rocketry. The UN is pro Shiite, which is why they need to be run out of the region by NATO.

To: Fitzcarraldo

Retired Canadian General Lew MacKenzie — who is speaking in Toronto tonight at a Stand with Israel rally — was interviewed on CBC Toronto radio this a.m. He told the show’s anchor that he had received an e-mail only days before from the dead Canadian observor who was a member of his former battalion. MacKenzie says that the message indicated in effect that the UN position was being used as cover by Hezbollah, who, MacKenzie explained, can do so quite freely as they are not members of the UN and not subject, therefore, to official condemnation.

MacKenzie further took issue with the misleading reportage (citing CNN in particular) that suggests that Beirut is being bombarded by the IDF and that the city is in ruins. He said that the bombing is no where near the saturation levels that constitute a bombardment and the IAF have specifically targetted a twelve-block area that is, more-or-less, Hezbollah City, and only after dropping leaflets warning civilians to vacate well in advance of the planned airstrikes.




May GOD be constantly with you and the brave soldiers of the IDF. Shalom!

E-mail sent 10:00 a.m EST

Major Paeta Hess-von Kruedener is MIA and it maybe that the Hezzies carted him off. There is still a wee bit of hope yet.

I read on another post that the flags of both the UN and the Hizbullah flew side-by-side and they also share water and other supplies with each other. What's with that? Sorry to hear about the Canadian, but, I'd target and bomb the sh*t out of that building also!

Prayer for him.

I recall a US Marine who was stationed in one of those outposts.

They kidnapped him and sent a tape of his torture and murder to the US.

Did the same to Bill Buckley who was station head of CIA there.
