The last time “UN monitors” got involved in Israel’s business they were co-opted by Hezbollah in So. Lebanon, and Israel (justifiably) fears the same would happen with Hamas in Gaza.
Was that before or after the Israelis sprayed cluster bombs in Lebanon? Let’s see, 20 dead and 194 wounded, and the UN has managed to clear HALF (150,000) of the bombs Well, that ought to teach those terrorists, huh?
