On Tuesday July 25th, the Israelis killed 4 UN observers in an airstrike on a United Nations Observer Group (UNIFIL) building in southern Lebanon. On Monday... Israeli tank shells slammed into a UNIFIL position, wounding four Ghanaian soldiers, while last week an Indian soldier from UNIFIL was seriously wounded by Israeli tanks shells. You never know where terrorists might be hiding... they certainly have been seen in certain neighborhoods and villages across Lebanon, and the IDF has shown great wisdom in blowing up thousands of homes in order to get them. But when you run out of civilian homes to blow up, you must seek other targets. No doubt the Israeli's have good intelligence indicating terrorists have now taken to hiding in ambulances and on UN bases, so don't wince when you see these things blown up by the IDF, remember - Israel is doing Lebanon a favor!
