Israel fired on, and killed, UN peace keepers. Multiple times.

I think they are hardly disciplined here.

Seriously, this again. In the middle of Hezbollah controlled territory there were firefights with UN peacekeepers ... and of course the people who did this "were IDF soldiers". Of course ... that's the explanation.

Does anyone still believe this? I mean, even if it's technically true, it is very well known Hezbollah sneaks as close as they can to UN bases, and then fires rockets at Israeli civilians from there, intentionally. And yes, I'm sure that this creates more than a bit of tension.

But even if that did result in a firefight ... it's not Israel that's responsible. Nobody seriously believes that.
