U.N. Troops Find Hezbollah Smugglers, Run Away Scared
As Hezbollah rearms and refortifies southern Lebanon for war with Israel, the U.N. does its job this way….
Haaretz:
Armed Hezbollah militants warded off members of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) last month when the peacekeepers discovered a truck carrying weapons and ammunition belonging to the Lebanon-based guerilla group.
The incident was referred to briefly in a semi-yearly report submitted to the UN Security Council by UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon. The incident was the first time that UNIFIL forces were confronted by armed Hezbollah men south of Lebanon’s Litani River, an area which Security Council resolution 1701 prohibits Hezbollah from entering.
According to a government source in Jerusalem, the incident caused great embarrassment for UNIFIL. The source described the incident, explaining that UNIFIL troops on patrol discovered the truck and chased it down and pulled it over. When the UNIFIL troops approached the vehicle, the source said, armed Hezbollah men exited the truck and threatened the troops at gunpoint. The UNIFIL patrol then went back into their cars, according to the source, and returned to their base.
The report submitted to the Security Council said the incident occurred on the night between the 30 and 31 of March. “This serious violation of the UN resolution raises concerns,” the report said.
The incident was not reported in the media at the time of its occurrence.
Israeli security officials believe that Hezbollah forces are usually found in areas where the organization enjoys centralized civilian support. There are many areas that answer to that description in south Lebanon because most of the residents in the south of the country are Shiite Muslims, who support Hezbollah.

Yeah we all seen this coming. The UN “peacekeepers” are nothing but a bunch of brokedicks backed up by a limp wristed organization.
April 22nd, 2008 at 7:32 pmThe UN is a paper tiger. They couldn’t fight their way out of a wet paper bag of sh*t anyways. They ought to just pull out. When the next war starts ,the Hizzies and the IDF are just going to roll over top of them; same as they did in the last war.
The old saying is true: “Lead, follow or get the f*ck out of the way.” The last part is good advice for a broke-d*ck group like the UN.
April 22nd, 2008 at 7:58 pmThe UN - A real manly bunch.
They run from their duty as enforcers, but are quite brave when it comes to molesting children and making sex slaves of the oppressed African people that they are supposed to be protecting from harm.
April 22nd, 2008 at 8:19 pmA truly pathetic bunch, from top to bottom - the whole thing should be disbanded for all the good that they are doing.

According to a government source in Jerusalem, the incident caused great embarrassment for UNIFIL.
for me the source says also about the evenment ; I am afraid that the info has “sometimes” an “agenda” when it comes to the fairness.
I am not doubting that HBZ is a threat for Israel, just how some events concerning the “blue helmets” in Lebanon are “sometimes” interpretated.
if one diggs in each army forum there, one can find “sometimes” another version of the evenments.
so what that photo has to do with the depicted situation ?
