United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan charged early Wednesday morning that Israel deliberately targeted a United Nations post in Lebanon late Tuesday night, killing four UNIFIL members.

They were part of the international body's peace keeping force in Lebanon that was created in 1978 after the beginning of the Peace for Galilee Campaign, Dan Gillerman, Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations said he was "shocked" by Annan's accusations and demanded an apology.

They were part of the international body's peace keeping force in Lebanon

A sad, pathetic joke.

[xzins]

Annan should be forced to answer the question: "Why would Israel diliberately kill UN workers?

[Bad~Rodeo]

They were part of the international body's peace keeping force in Lebanon

Not entirely true. They are part of A 2000 UN force called UNIFEL, aka, United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon and they had NO POWER what-so-ever to get get involved, INCLUDING unless fired upon. Kofi made sure of that when he met with........

[rfreedom4u]

Since UN personnel were killed isn't this the part where the UN runs?

[knyteflyte3]

We desperately need the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US, this is such an understatement of fact........It's utterly disgusting..........I've had it..........

[My2Cents]

This self-important little nothing of a man (I use the term advisedly), makes me sick.

[no dems]

Too bad that Kofi and half the U.N. weren't there in that spot for a convention when it happened.

[Bad~Rodeo]

Anan will make sure he shakes up Shit in our country before he leaves office on Dec. 31, '06....Hmmmm...much like Clinton did when he trashed the oval office when...uhhh....so I heard.

[Mike Darancette]

What were the UN Observers observing the ordnance flying over their heads for the last two weeks? They should have been evacuated early on unless they were spotting for Hezballah.

[roses of sharon]

I remember hearing about some UNIFIL soldiers being paid by Hezbollah in 2001, there is an old thread on FR about it.

[Bad~Rodeo]

No brother, I dis-agree

[the Real fifi]

I have to think this baseless charge is his way to force an early cease fire. What a corrupt protetor of terrorists he is.

[Jameison]

"Annan Charges Israel Deliberately Killed 4 at U.N. Post "

# 1. Annan has zero credibility (oil for food anyone?)
# 2. The Unifil has a record of collaboration with Hizbullah to kidnap Israeli soldiers. If they are helping Hizbullah, they deserve to die.
# 3. If these Unifil people are indeed inocent, in any war, people who stand between the 2 sides sometimes die. Tough. A war is not a dinner party.

[mkjessup]

Shut up Kofi Anus, you're damn lucky the IDF hasn't targeted a cruise missile for your corrupt, arrogant ass.

(From my keyboard to Ohlmert's ears, eh Lord? :)

[sageb1]

Why do you disagree...bro?

[knyteflyte3]

not gonna stoop down to your level on this one........

[roses of sharon]

I remember that kidnapping charge, also, as I posted above, there was a scandal about Hezbollah paying Indian UNIFIL soldiers. (search archives for old thread)

[Bad~Rodeo]

Ohhh Puuulease find it for me if you can...Or anyone else. It would make a PROFOUND EFFECT on the fight against Terrorism

[Jameison]

"United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon "

What kind of interim force stays at a place for to the tune of 28 years?

[Bad~Rodeo]

Judge not brother. We will gather the facts and present them in order to expedite his demise in politics.

[Irish Eyes]

I think that it was Dan Gillerman, Israeli Ambassador to the UN that I heard on tv tonight. He quietly hinted about something like that.

[roses of sharon]

Na, just another UN mess.

[Chena]

Perhaps our troops in S. Korea would be an example?

[2Fro]

To paraphrase a classic line from the revered Vince Lomgardi, Kofi Annan is so dumb that if they put his brain in a duck, it would fly backwards.

[Cecily]

Sort of like Koffee's blue helmets in Rwanda.

[2Fro]

Lomgardi = Lombardi

[claudiustg]

He's an evil little putz and a poor diplomat!

Hezbollah Rockets Hit UN Observation Post(last Friday....crickets from Kofi)

[lardog]

Ding, Ding, Ding..we have a winner

[gogeo]

Kofi, you ignorant slut.

[Bad~Rodeo]

Sorry, being bombarded by opinions since I posted this latest Moron's remarks.Hold the Hell on.....

[Inyokern]

Another Jenin "massacre."

[sageb1]

Hold the hell on?????

[Doogle]

..it wasn't deliberate..it was just a good shot


Doogle

[bobby.223]

beautiful! I agree 100%. why this little terrorist enabler has not been whacked by now is beyond me.

[Reactionary]

No need to worry. The UN has been hard at work since 1948 in Palestine. Thus far, they've done exactly what they've set out to do in that they have created the world's first fascist welfare state.

[DCPatriot]

I can't wait to hear how Ambassador John R. Bolten responds to the press on this topic.

[rock_lobsta]

Kofi and his UN thugs have made it clear that they are an enemy of Israel.

IMO, they're a valid target.

[sageb1]

Nor can I, but I'm not going to have anyone telling me to "hold the hell on."

[taxesareforever]

Hey Kofi, if it was deliberately targeted you should be saying "Good shot". Something you can't say about the terrorist's shots.

[Asclepius]

Annan needs to ask himself, "why do they hate us?"

But rather than condemning Israel shouldn't Kofi be attempting to appease them?--why are only terrorists encouraged to kill indiscriminately?

[tessalu]

Will some one please tell me what good the UN observers were doing on their post? Did they ever do anything to help to stop the Hezbollah arms buildup? What were they doing that they deserved to be paid?

[Lancey Howard]

I figure Israel "accidently" killed the alleged UN collaborators the same way the US "accidently" bombed the French and Chinese embassies.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

Correction:

" They were part of the intentional international ( United Nations ) body's ( troublemakers ) in keeping the terrorist ( Hammas ) force in Lebanon to harm Israel, and put the blame on Israel "

[Mike Darancette]

Will some one please tell me what good the UN observers were doing on their post?

They were observing Hezballah kill and capture the Israeli troops.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

This is just a theory, but, I get this feeling that they set Israel up, and used their own people ( Hammas ) to attack that headquarters to kill those UN ( so called ) peace keepers.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

This self-important, ( Corrupted ) little nothing of a man (I use the term advisedly), makes me sick.

[Jameison]

"Perhaps our troops in S. Korea would be an example?"

They are not interim.

[xzins]

My suspicion is that the UN post was providing forward observer info or command & control.
