Israel plays the blame game again: Israeli military puts responsibility for incident on U.N. force

So far as anyone knows it was an Israeli pilot on an Israeli mission, under Israeli orders (not UN personnel) that drops the bombs and missiles that and every other night.

Yet, through the twisted logic of Israel's statements we see them keen to shift blame for their murderous campaigns. As usual the Zionists try to blame the UN and everyone else for killing civilains in Lebanon just like they do in Palestine.


(Washingtom Post) Darkness had descended on the Bekaa Valley when the long convoy of cars snaked up a gentle slope toward Kefraya. In better times, the little town was celebrated for its wine. But to the Lebanese fleeing the war that night, it was a way station on the road to safety.

Or so they thought.

A dry boom rang out without warning shortly before 10 p.m., and the second car in the convoy exploded in flames, witnesses recounted. In the blackness, no one understood at first. People alighted from their cars to see what was the matter. The buzz of an Israeli drone was heard overhead -- some recalled hearing two drones -- and the awful realization settled over the travelers that they were under attack.
.

"half-dozen missiles had been fired and seven people were killed, including a retreating Lebanese soldier, a Red Cross volunteer and five other civilians, and 36 people had been wounded"

.

"The Israeli military issued a statement early the next morning saying the column was attacked because of suspicions -- which the military later acknowledged were baseless -- that the cars were smuggling arms for Hezbollah fighters. In the same statement, the military said it had received a request for safe passage for the convoy from the United Nations but that it had been turned down."

(SO THE ISRAELI's KNEW THE CONVOY WAS THERE REGARDLESS OF THESE CIVILANS BEING REFUSED SAFE PASSAGE - WHICH IS ILLEGAL!!!!!)
