Israel attacks the UN...again.


An Israeli airstrike hit a United Nations post in southern Lebanon late Tuesday, killing at least two of the agency's observers, according to the U.N. Interim Force in Lebanon
. Two other missing observers are feared buried in the rubble of the building.

U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said he was "deeply distressed" by the "apparently deliberate" strike.

"This coordinated artillery and aerial attack on a long-established and clearly marked U.N. post at Khiyam occurred despite personal assurances given to me by Prime Minister Ehud Olmert that U.N. positions would be spared Israeli fire," he said in a statement.

"Furthermore, General Alain Pelligrini, the U.N. force commander in south Lebanon, had been in repeated contact with Israeli officers throughout the day on Tuesday, stressing the need to protect that particular U.N. position from attack."

Did the international community got it at last? Did they understand the nature of this horrible agression?

Maybe civilian Lebanese blood was not loud enough...maybe UN blood is louder?

Now more than any other time, Israel is losing this war.

Why would Israel do this? To spit spitefully in the face of international protest and condemnation of their actions? It is a foolish action. It makes the IDF look as bloodthirsty as it really is. The facade of Israel's humanist democracy is rotting away, along with that of the United States since the Iraq invasion. The world can see our naked greed, ambition, and bloodlust now.
