We all knew something was coming when the IDF set up right next to them, but holy fuck... that's next level batshit crazy.
If nothing comes of this, what the heck is even the point of the UN?
You cannot more clearly state your status as the villain on the global stage than by deliberately firing on UN peacekeepers.
Biden has another chance to have a real investigation now. Or will he repeat the IDF PR line word for word before it gets debunked? (Again)
It's the UN. Why does it fall on the US to do anything while all of the EU kicks back and does nothing as well? Defend your people.
Because the US is the only country that can enforce its own laws about not sending weapons or cash to countries committing war crimes.
Look I agree with you 100%
UN peacekeepers have a terrible history of abuse in many places across the world
Yeah but there's a pretty big difference in going after them for abusing people and going after them because they're in the way of your invasion.
You true 100%
We can't have people observing now can we.
There can't be war crimes if no one exists to remember the war crimes.
Bit weird to fire at your own human shields
Why don’t they do their job, and keep the peace?
They have a very limited ROE that Israel and Hezbollah advocated for through their allies.
Zios have murdered many many people from the UN.
Yes, but these are white /s
