37 children, 4 UN staff, countless others slaughtered from the safety of the air-conditioned F-16.. and counting!
Lebanon described the bombing as a "heinous crime"
Lebanon's prime minister denounced "Israeli war criminals" and cancelled talks with the US secretary of state. Israel said it regretted the incident - but added that civilians had been warned to flee the village.
Several countries have condemned the attack and renewed their calls for an immediate ceasefire - opposed by Israel, the US and UK. [aka the league for peace]
Several thousand protesters chanted "Death to Israel, Death to America" outside the United Nations headquarters in downtown Beirut. [solving the terrorism problem once and for all]
oh dear!
apparently this isnt the first time this happened either- ten years ago, 1996, same place, 106 civilians dead, 2 UN soldiers injured.. looking like a dangerous season for the UN this time round..
"Amnesty International conducted an on-site investigation of the incident in collaboration with military experts, using interviews with UNIFIL staff and civilians in the compound, and posing questions to the IDF, who did not reply. Amnesty concluded, "the IDF intentionally attacked the UN compound, although the motives for doing so remain unclear. The IDF have failed to substantiate their claim that the attack was a mistake. Even if they were to do so they would still bear responsibility for killing so many civilians by taking the risk to launch an attack so close to the UN compound."
these people have no idea what happened at stalingrad..
