Disturbing News From The Front, Part II

Another note from my friend volunteering in Israel…

guys,

here is what i have for you this week....totally unbelievable....

1. we met and spoke with some medics who were on a infiltration during the war/action.....4 of their soldiers were injured including the commander but none were killed....here is the kicker....a reporter went with them and documented the whole event (we got to see it...amazing) ..and when they came across a house of hezbollah and the action started heating up....the commander yelled for his troops to take their helmets off....why???? because the hezbollah were dressed in israeli uniforms....he didn't want his men to shoot the wrong person....luckily they didn't.....

2. i found out why you are not hearing about any of this back there and none of it is hitting the news....the agreement was that israel pull out of lebanon....and that 15,000 UN troops...(only 5000 showed up and most are muslim)....and the lebanese army were to police and disarm hezbollah.....well....they aren't...israel has been doing flyovers and photographing hezbollah rearming....and this time with rockets that will hit tel aviv and jerusalem.....they have presented the evidence to the UN....and the UN told them that the information was obtained illegally via these flyovers and thus they would not act on them.....and by the way....the french have threatened to shoot down the israeli air craft......

to say i am angry just doesn't say it....not enough....some of the soldiers i spoke with feel that we are going to have to do this all over again in 6 months....maybe a year...some feel a little longer....on top of that...hamas has declared war on israel...again....and are ready to move against israel....

unbelievable....

Am I surprised? No! But note that the media are busy right now in their coverage of other stories, some of which are boring and repetitive.

And what's with MUSLIM UN troops? Good Lord! Is that the fox guarding the henhouse, or what?

they were wearing israeli uniforms? So that they could commit atrocities and blame the israelis? Or is that just a side benefit?!

That is very scary, I also fear for Israel after these elections.

Just popping in to say hi Esther, I was going through my entire blog in search of something and I read all your comments, and Felis, Gindy, etc...good times!
