Report: U.N. observers' calls unheeded

U.N. observers in Lebanon telephoned the Israeli military 10 times in six hours to ask it to stop shelling near their position before an attack killed four observers and sparked international anger with
Israel, U.N. officials said Wednesday.

Officials in the outpost called the Israeli army 10 times during those six hours, and each time an army official promised to have the bombing stopped, according to a preliminary U.N. report on the incident, which was shown to an Associated Press reporter on Wednesday.

Israel has become suicidal?

1. Israel acts like a paranoid psychotic

If it were a person, it would defintely have this disorder, IMO.

2. They should have called collect

Then refused to pay. I'm sure that a big telecom would stop Israel from bombing just to collect its fees.

In this big, bad world, it's best to have corporate backing. A government of, by and for the people is so last century.

3. Well, there ARE idiot Jews.

I don't like to admit it, but it's true. There are morons among us.

There is no rational defense for bombing a peacekeeper. There is no acceptable explanation. It's WRONG.

4. But remember. Israel is perfect, and can never do anything wrong.

5. It's just like the USS Liberty

"Oh, sorry we bombed and strafed you for hours. Thought you were someone else."

Absolutely revolting. The Isreali military is now just as much a terrorist organization in my eyes as Hezbollah. Moreso, actually, since they're so much more effective at slaughtering innocent people.
