1. Israel bombed Lebanon and then came for the UN peacekeepers. War crime after war crime from Israel. UN peacekeepers were just defending themselves against terrorists.

2. >”An initial inquiry suggests that Unifil forces stationed nearby deliberately fired at the drone and downed it. The drone’s activity did not pose a threat to Unifil forces,” spokesman Lt Col Nadav Shoshani posted on X.

   >He said Israeli forces later dropped a grenade towards the area where the drone fell.

   >”It should be emphasised that no fire was directed at Unifil forces. The incident is being further reviewed through military coordination channels,” he added.

   >Unifil said the grenade was dropped by another Israeli drone “close” to a patrol.

   >”Moments later, an Israeli tank fired a shot towards the peacekeepers. Fortunately, no injury or damage was caused to the Unifil peacekeepers and assets.”

   Rogue state stuff

3. Oh, so UN peacekeepers can actually do their job when they feel like it? That’s a surprise, if a welcome one. Shame they didn’t approach their duty with same gusto when Hezbollah was operating within spitting distance of their bases. The situation might have been wholly different now. 

4. Imagine if North Korea was terrorizing the world like Israel is. You’d never hear the end of it. We’d be rounding up Koreans into camps and banning their cuisine across the nation. We would teach children the alphabet, the 50 states and the terror of juche death cultism in kindergarten. Racism so foul and disgusting it would melt televisions and cause phones to burst into acidic sludge.

   Good riddance to the vulture. Shoot down all their drones. Ground their air force forever. If they want to bomb a city make their troops carry a MK84 on their backs, since their cause is so righteous. Unbelievable that it took this long for the adults to step in.
