What should be probed is why the hezzbollah sympathizers stayed in a known danger area with enough info to know to bug out.

[Jezebelle]

The UN should stay out of the way. They're useless. All they do is create another obstacle to the Israelis, which I guess is their real purpose.

Putting on my tin-foil beanie for a minute, how do we know the UN site wasn't housing some hezzies and/or their ordnance? If so, the attack on or around the site may have been deliberate, and justifiably so.

That fact that UN "observers" were killed in a war zone is 100% the fault of the UN who ordered them there.

Hezbollah is obviously going to use a UN post for both protection and PR.

If Hezbollah can run war making operations with impunity next to a UN post they win. If Hezbollah gets Israel to attack and takes out the UN post bad press goes all around the world and they win again.

The only way not to be used by Hezbollah is not to be there.

To think otherwise is just plain foolish.

FYI:

LittleGreenFootballs.com - Weblog: "HIZBALLAH FIRING FROM VICINITY OF UN POSITIONS" (July 26, 2006)

Naqoura - "UNITED NATIONS INTERIM FORCE IN LEBANON (UNIFIL) - Press Release (PRESS RELEASE SNIPPET: "Another UN position of the Ghanaian battalion in the area of Marwahin in the western sector was also directly hit by one mortar round from the Hezbollah side last night. The round did not explode, and there were no casualties or material damage. Another 5 incidents of firing close to UN positions from the Israeli side were reported yesterday. It was also reported that Hezbollah fired from the vicinity of four UN positions at Alma ash Shab, Tibnin, Brashit, and At Tiri. All UNIFIL positions remain occupied and maintained by the troops.") (July 26, 2006)

US and Israeli intelligence have long known that Muslim terrorist use the UN as a shield, and worse.

The terrorists paint their vehicles in UN colors and logo, and fly the flag in order to be immune from searches and attack.

[DustyMoment]

While Prime Minister Stephen Harper says he doubts it was deliberate, a full investigation is needed into the Israeli air strike that killed four UN military observers in Lebanon, including Canadian Maj. Paeta Hess-von Kruedener of Kitchener.

The facts are already coming out. The cowardly Hezbollah terrorists were using the UN outpost (and the soldiers in it) as a shield while they were conducting attacks against the IDF and Israel. It's a standard murdering Muzzie coward tactic. The Israelis didn't target the outpost, they were targeting the Hezboolah cowards surrounding the outpost and using it as a shield.

[libertylover]

Hezbollah terrorists using the U.N. position for cover is the same as hiding in apartment buildings and hospitals.

The U.N. needs to get out of the way since they've obviously failed in their mission to disarm Hezbollah anyway.

Any organization that wants to take away our guns cannot be trusted. This is an organization that needs the tire spikes thrown out quick.

[Psycho_Bunny]

Bombing must be probed

Uh.  No.  Shut up.  Mind your own business and keep your citizens out of foreign war zones.

[CaptainCanada]

No one has mentioned the obvious. A military officer with the last name Hess-von Kruedener is targetted by Jews...
HELLO!!!!!

[mkjessup]

I want to know why Kofi Anus didn't order the immediate evacuation of ALL "UNIFIL" personnel when Hezbullocks began lobbing rockets at Israel, prompting the inevitable retaliation from the IDF!

"UNIFIL", it sounds like a multiweight motor oil.

In the U.N.'s case LIGHTweight, like 5W10.
