      Israeli forces fire on UN peacekeepers in Lebanon

      Notice that no actual UN soldiers were fired at; it’s just equipment. Now imagine if those were Lebanese—or worse, Palestinian. The whole thing is pretty farcical don’t get me wrong, but it’s an occasionally useful farce, which is why Israel fucking hates them. See “assessment and controversy” and “confrontations” sections. It’s also no coincidence that so many incidents of UNIFIL soldiers dying were perpetrated by Israel or SLA.

      UNFIL gladly fought Hezbollah for Israel.

      Examples?
