Middle East: IDF concerningly close to Irish troops in Lebanon
www.bbc.com
IDF soldiers are currently a few hundred metres from camp UN-652 where UNIFIL Irish troops are stationed.

President Michael D Higgins said it is “outrageous” that the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) has “threatened” UNIFIL peacekeepers and attempted to have them evacuated from the villages they are defending in Lebanon.

      Israel is run by monsters to the benefit of monsters with the consent of monsters.

      They are just mad that anyone would dare push back against their monstrous insanity. Israel thinks the international rule of law only applies to other countries, and will eventually learn what happens to countries that wipe their ass with human rights.

      There will be a day they go to far for even the US to insulate them from the consequences of their actions, and when that happens I hope to see Bibi at the Hague with all of his genocidal buddies awaiting the same punishment we gave the Nazis that ran the camps.

          Yea, Israel needs to back the fuck up and honor the ceasefire. Israel should also probably stop deploying terrorism as a tool of their war machine. Perhaps if they’d stop murdering civilians there would be something Israel has to say that’s worth listening to but until then they’re just fucking Nazis invading a neighboring country after having murdered a lot of its civilians under questionable circumstances with no review process.

          UNIFIL are where they are supposed to be, Israel needs to respect the fucking deal that they signed and stop pretending like the soldiers protecting those villages are interfering with Israel in some way.

          Israel is the bad guy here, there is no excuse for what they are doing or how they are doing it. They make the region and the world less safe and less stable. They do not honor their agreements. They do not respect human rights. They target families, men women children hospitals schools nothing is sacred.

          Israel is a monster run by monsters for the benefit of monsters with the consent of monsters.
