Based on publicly available information, we condemn the Israeli army in the strongest possible terms for this wanton act against an unarmed man--a man shot in the back by a military sniper while negotiating with the Israeli army to evacuate the women, children, and UN staff who were in the UN compound at the time.&quot; \r\n.... \r\n&quot;[F]or two years United Nations staff have been subject to escalating harassment and violence by Israel's military, so that the protection supposed to be afforded by the blue letters of the UN is being steadily eroded... UN staff--international and Palestinian alike--have been verbally abused, stripped, beaten, shot at, and killed by Israeli soldiers.&quot; \r\n.... \r\n&quot;From its silence, we presume the Israeli authorities have ignored UN requests for an investigation and report of these two incidents, and have not seen fit to take any disciplinary action against the soldiers involved. To us, this seems to confirm a pattern of utter contempt on the part of the Israeli army for the lost lives of these men, the safety of UN staff, or the minimum standards imposed by international law which should protect UN staff and other humanitarian workers.&quot; \r\n.... \r\n&quot;In these tragic circumstances, rather than easily uttered regrets, we expect the Israeli government take the necessary steps to stop the harassment, beating and killing of UN staff.&quot; \r\n\r\n\r\n","author":"R.I.P.","parent_id":24393,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2002-12-26 08:24:33","modified":"2002-12-26 08:24:33","fileurl":""}]}
