    I joined 11 days ago to engage in discussions about a topic that is of concern to me. I can see that I will have to lower my expectations.

      Rather telling that you responded to this comment but not the comment giving you the source on the attack on the UN troops. Funny that.

            They didn’t attack the UN. They fired on two UN positions after warning them to leave because Hezbollah was operating within 50m of the positions.

              Oh yes, clearly that’s not an attack. Firing on United Nations positions and United Nations personnel with weapons isn’t what any normal human being would call an attack. Hold on I have to make a phone call, Delano Roosevelt yeah you made a big mistake the Japanese never attacked us they just fired on Pearl Harbor and our soldiers at Pearl Harbor. Apparently there’s a big difference.

              Israel has no business ordering anyone to leave anywhere outside of their borders. This was an illegal move and illegal attack.

                Tell me something: What have those UN peacekeepers been doing all this time? Are they there to protect Hezbollah so they can continue to fire rockets and missiles into Israel? Because they sure haven’t been keeping the peace, and they also haven’t enforced UN Resolution 1701. So get the fuck out and let Israel take care of business.

                You know what’s ironic? The past 60 years of conflict could possibly have been avoided if the UN held their ground back in 1967 when Egypt asked them to leave. They were actually doing their job back then and their decision to pack up and leave at Egypt’s request was a major contributing factor to the Six-Day War. Seems almost as if they’re biased against Israel, huh?
