The IDF says Hezbullah is preventing civilians from fleeing the battle.
The IDF has found that Hizbullah is preventing civilians from leaving villages in southern Lebanon. Roadblocks have been set up outside some of the villages to prevent residents from leaving, while in other villages Hizbullah is preventing UN representatives from entering, who are trying to help residents leave. In two villages, exchanges of fire between residents and Hizbullah have broken out. (Hanan Greenberg)
Words fail me.
Is anyone shocked that the UN, now with first-hand knowlege of Hizbollah atrocities against Lebanese civilians, does and says NOTHING?????

Of course, the cynic in me would say that the UN’s silence on this issue is because it might bolster the Israeli case, and God forbid the UN should ever let that happen.

Moral equivalence…
All they want is to kill Jews/Israelis. And if they have to kill some Lebanese to do that, they’re happy to do so….

And will we ever see this story reported in the MSM? I think not.
