    What are UN “peacekeepers” even doing? I haven’t heard anything about them trying to keep peace in the region.

    Rather generous title for the NazIDF pointing a tank barrel directly at the UN troops

    Thye’re using the UN base as human shield cover now. UN vehicles in blue, IDF in red

    So does that mean this UN mission has failed then? A quick look suggests they are supposed to be keeping Hezbollah out of the picture and Israeli forces out of Lebanon. All of it wasted, there are over 10000 UN personnel there. Since they first went there in 1978 it seems they’ve been as much use as a sock on a fish.
