As skirmishes broke out between Israeli forces and Hezbollah militants along Israel's northern border on Sunday, the United Nations mission said a rocket struck its headquarters in southern Lebanon.

The U.N. mission said none of its peacekeepers were hurt despite not being in shelters at the time when the rocket struck the coastal town of Naqoura.

The mission did not specify where the rocket was fired, saying it was working on verification. Some Lebanese media said the rocket was fired from the positions of Palestinian Hamas militants in southern Lebanon, intending to reach Israel but falling short, though it has yet to be confirmed.

The mission expressed disappointment in its efforts to de-escalate the situation.

So it was a friendly fire incident with Hamas shooting the UN. Or at least Hamas hit their own human shields.

The entire world knows which side the UN always roots for in these semi-regular attacks on Israel.

The fact they are “investigating” the source of the rocket that hit their building tells us that it was not Israel.

No screams from the UN about proportionality or war crimes, so I’m pretty sure about where the missiles didn’t come from.

“Peacekeepers who do nothing”

Hey, they’re great at rape, sexual assault and corruption in third world countries. Not worth damn anywhere else though.

After Israel left southern Lebanon, UN ‘peacekeepers’ set up monitoring sites. The islamofascistnazis built rockets and rocket launchers RIGHT NEXT TO THE ‘peacekeepers.’ Since much of the UN hates Israel, hates America, the ‘peacekeepers’ just watched.

If the peace and quiet of any ‘peacekeepers’ is disturbed.... Oh Well....

The only peace the UN supports is devouring Israel piece by piece.

UN peace keepers. Dutch bisexuals and Pakistani cab drivers in blue helmets.

Yeah. They’re on the job. Somehow their HG getting hit is divine retribution.
