UN peacekeepers in Lebanon have been growing increasingly concerned by the activities of the Israeli army in areas adjacent to their operations.
The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (Unifil) was established in 1978 and since the last Israel-Hezbollah war in 2006, it is the only military force apart from the Lebanese army that should be deployed between the Israeli border and the Litani River, 30 kilometres north of the border.
Israel ordered Unifil to evacuate its bases in the areas it was operating - however, it refused.
Now, Israel has reportedly established a forward operating base within very close proximity to UN Post 6-52, which is staffed by Irish peacekeepers, raising alarm from the organisation about the possible threat to their activities.
They will “accidentally” target them or use the human shield line to make them leave. The Zios don’t like witnesses.
So what now? Send them more bombs?
Of course not.
The US will also send them rockets, missiles, launch systems, CIWS, tanks, aircraft, ammo, and personnel to support the genocide.
Let UNIFIL do its job, expel IDF from south Lebanon.
If UNIFIL will surrender, it will show how weak the UN is.
They already did surrender to both sides. UNFIL had/has a mandate to preserve the blue line, and afaik does not actively permit Hezbollah to cross - they’re just not too bothered about seeking them out. And they backed down from enforcing it against the Israelis…
On 31 October 2006, eight Israeli F-15s… came in at what was interpreted as an attack formation, and the peacekeepers were “two seconds away” from firing at the jets with an anti-aircraft missile.
Which clearly sparked some back-room diplomacy, because soon after:
On 6 September [2006], during a European Union meeting in Brussels, the French Defense Minister announced that the Israeli Air Force had stopped mock air attacks over UNIFIL positions. On 17 November, two Israeli F-15s overflew UN positions at low altitude and high speed while two reconnaissance planes circled the headquarters of the French battalion. French peacekeepers responded by readying their anti-aircraft batteries, and warned that Israeli warplanes conducting mock attacks could be fired on.
The IAF continued its reconnaissance flights over Lebanon, and despite strong protests, UNIFIL peacekeeping forces did not follow through on their threats to fire at Israeli aircraft.
The opposite side of that coin is what would happen if the IDF accidentally-on-purpose hits UNFIL with a missile or two.
The US would be caught between a rock and hard place, forcing it to choose the non-genocidal side.
Israel has done it before. Multiple times.
The US Liberty says otherwise.
What makes you hope for that? Both parties have been competing over who is the biggest genocide supporter and now who gets to be the biggest war mongerer.
Would be interesting if soldiers from a NATO country would be murdered by Israel and the country calling Article 5. But by now i wouldn’t be surprised if the US also would dismantle NATO from within, rather than hold Israel and itself accountable.
I didn’t say I hoped for it. Watching murder unfold is never something anyone should hope for.
I just offered a scenario where Israel crosses yet another line in the sand, as they have previously done over and over again, murdering journalists, UN workers, and NGO food/aid distributors.
I was referring to this aspect:
it [the US] to choose the non-genocidal side.
Sorry if my reply was confusing in that regard. At this point, where even US citizens can be murdered in broad daylight by the IDF, i don’t think there is anything really that will stop the US from supporting the genocide of Arabs.
Careful with those Irish peacekeepers:
