    UNIFIL has been providing cover for Hizbollah terrorists for almost two decades. Why stop now ?

    UNIFIL should just leave. They’re giving cover to terrorists and are getting hit in the crossfire from Israel. Their mission was to discourage a war and they’ve failed. At this point they’re making things worse. 

  3. I hope those posts were evacuated. It would be extremely silly for UN personnel to stick around with expectation of Israeli response in close proximity to their position.

    “waaaah waaaaah Israel has no right to strike near UN positions for no reason”

    The reason in question:

    *”just what is UNIFIL doing there???”*

    Listening to the sounds of Wasbollah’s tunneling crews 24 hours a day

  6. This is not exactly an impartial source. Has anyone got a better source?

    Just a few hours ago 34 countries condemned the IDF for attacking UNIFIL.

  7. At this point the UN mission is to continue to do nothing other than provide cover for hezb positions.

    I get that peacekeepers are meant to deter war but objectively this is comically pathetic for anyone with common sense. Hezb is and continues to use the UN as a shield so they can launch rockets at civilian targets.

    But big bad Israel is bad and mean guys.

  8. I’ve seen video proof of Hezbollah tunnels just meters away from a UNIFIL post. There’s no way they didn’t see them. They knew and allowed it.

  9. Oh no, I’m shocked. Hezbollah is still using the UNIFIL as human shields while they sit here like morons wondering why Israel keeps being attacked.

    Oh wait, no I’m not shocked, they’ve been doing this for decades now

  10. Oh the irony. The peacekeepers are there to ensure these exact sort of attacks never take place.

    They need to leave now.

  11. ah a repeat of the same garbage comments from people who don’t know shit about the peacekeepers …. surprise surprise

    go back to any UNIFIL thread & it’s the same nonsense

  12. If the peacekeepers actually made peace, they’d be out of jobs real quick, it’s actually smart for them, economically, to allow Hezbollah to continue shooting rockets from UNFIL posts

  13. The IDF and Israeli political leadership has requested UNIFIL leave multiple times. It’s actually crazy that they needed to ask more than once.

  14. If anyone should blaming anyone, it should be Israel blaming the Lebanese gov and UN for failing to deliver on their obligations in 1701.
    Israel was about to eradicate Hez in 2006 and was forced to stop with the promise that the Lebanese army and UNIFIL will keep the peace
