    The news can be found at many news sources. The injuries to U.N. peacekeepers in Lebanon have been caused by Hezbollah, not Israel.

    Since the start of its ground invasion of Lebanon on October 1st, Israel has repeatedly attacked the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL). Israeli fire has injured several peacekeepers, destroyed UN structures and equipment, and forced some peacekeepers to withdraw. The attacks have been widely condemned, including by the countries that contribute troops to UNIFIL, which reaffirmed their support for the mission. Meanwhile, the Israeli invasion of south Lebanon and unremitting attacks across the country have taken a massive toll on Lebanese civilians, displacing more than 1.2 million, killing more than 2,000, flattening entire towns and villages, and destroying parts of Beirut.

    Just a reminder that the Hezbollah missile launching site was a mere 100 yards away from the UNIFIL compound. The U.N. Peacekeepers had one job -- just one job -- written down in a U.N. agreement -- it was to stop Hezbollah from launching missiles into Israel. Instead the UNIFIL organization stood around and did nothing while allowing their bases to be used as cover for terrorist missile launches. Hence Israel needed to take action.
