IDF Did NOT Target UN Post; Hezbollah Used UN As Shield

Story here. h/t: NealeNews.com (emphasis mine)

The words of a Canadian United Nations observer written just days before he was killed in an Israeli bombing of a UN post in Lebanon are evidence Hezbollah was using the post as a "shield" to fire rockets into Israel, says a former UN commander in Bosnia.

Those words, written in an e-mail dated just nine days ago, offer a possible explanation as to why the post -- which according to UN officials was clearly marked and known to Israeli forces -- was hit by Israel on Tuesday night, said retired Maj.-Gen. Lewis MacKenzie yesterday.

(...)

"(...)This has not been deliberate targeting, but rather due to tactical necessity."

"What that means is, in plain English, 'We've got Hezbollah fighters running around in our positions, taking our positions here and then using us for shields and then engaging the (Israeli Defence Forces)," he said.



Why isn't the MSM talking more about this, rather than covering leftists' and anti-Semites' contentions that Israel deliberately hit the UN post? I suggest it's yet more evidence of the MSM's, as well as the left's, bias, closed-mindedness and political agenda.

There you have it, folks: the MSM is clearly biased, as is the left and UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, who almost immediately declared unequivocally, and without proof, that Israel deliberately targeted the UN post, ignoring the fact that Hezbollah was using them as human shields.

Besides, what on earth were "observers" doing right in the middle of a WAR? Did they actually believe a little blue helmet would magically keep them from being hit? Damn, but the UN is astonishingly delusional, stupid and irresponsible, for this and many, many other reasons we've already seen if we've been watching closely enough.

Letting the hateful, barbaric Hezbollah monsters use them for their own evil aims... doesn't that consist of "Dhimmitude" (to be a willing, submissive slave of Muslims)? Is the UN therefore Dhimmi? I firmly believe so. Anti-Semitic, too.

Is the UN worse than the League of Nations was?
