U.S. Envoy Bolton: Israel Must Consider Hizbullah 'Barbarian'
21:54 Jul 30, '06 / 5 Av 5766

(IsraelNN.com) John Bolton, American Ambassador to the United Nations, said outside the Security Council meeting Sunday night that Hizbullah immorally uses civilians as shields but that Israel is forced to take into "this barbaric practice" while exercising its right to self-defense.

He spoke as most of the Council's leaders denounced Israel for the bombing of the Lebanese village of Kana and demanded an immediate cease fire.

U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said Israel is carrying out its self-defense in a way that is "causing, death and suffering on a wholly unacceptable scale."

NOW I'm getting P.O'd...

CNN is willing to show the dead bodies of HEZ victims of Israel, but showing the dead bodies of 9/11 victims, or the screams of the leapers was "Too much for sensetive Americans"....

Let us all be perfectly clear in realizing what is happening here........

The Shia websites are allready calling this the Qana Massacre II.

This is a PR PLOY, with the same hoped-for results that the first one had. Israeli's aren't stupid enough to give Hez the same propoganda victory twice, so is it beyond the pale that HEZ would "Help" the situation along?

The Western Media sounds like it's already on this track, but Arab Media is going nuts.....

Palestinians Storm U.N. Compound In Gaza City http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/07/30/AR2006073000294.html

Palestinian protesters stormed the U.N. compound in Gaza City on Sunday during a protest against Israel’s bombing of a building in southern Lebanon that killed around 60 people, witnesses and U.N. staff said.

Hundreds of members of Islamic Jihad militant group, some throwing stones and others firing rounds from assault rifles, attacked the compound at the end of a rally, witnesses said.

At least two people were wounded.

U.N. staff were inside the compound at the time, but managed to escape, a U.N. official said. He said the site, which includes scores of buildings, was heavily ransacked by the demonstrators.

Witnesses said U.N. guards appeared to set off tear gas grenades to allow staff time to get away.

“The situation is very tense,” the U.N. official said.

Members of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’s special guard arrived shortly afterwards and managed to disperse some of the crowd by firing into the air.

Gunfire could be heard from within the compound but it was not clear who was firing at whom, witnesses said.

The attack came hours after a violent assault by Lebanese demonstrators against the U.N. headquarters in Beirut.

Witnesses said extensive damage had been caused to the United Nations’s Gaza compound, from where it directs its relief and aid operations for the whole of the Gaza Strip.

Note to self: Seems deliberate, but disproportional? /s

I love John Bolton. He should have been Secretary Of State. And he puts the truth squarely in front of the council... Hezbollah is using civilians as human shields to keep Israel from knocking out their capability to prolong the war since Israel is reluctant to harm the civilians. He made that clear even as all the other speakers where condemning Israel without knowing all the facts. Go figure.
