UNIFIL May Have Aided Hezbo Forces in Lebanon War

UNIFIL may have aided Hezbollah in the recent war by publishing Israeli positions in near real-time while not posting any information about Hezbo positions and military movements at all.

If true, this puts another nail in the coffin of so-called UNIFIL "neutrality" and removes a lot of reasons Israel should respect the UN troops when they finally assume their positions sometime next month.

Add the Weekly Standard article to the British newspaper TimesOnLine concerning the supply of weapons to Hezbo via Syria---Annan will do nothing to stop it---and any pretense disappears of the UN actually enforcing or even attempting to enforce UNSC 1559 which calls for disarming Hezbollah.

The UN has proved under the latest tests of its utility to be completely without leadership. With Iran and its IAEA subsidiary, the UN has proved feeble and even permissive in allowing Iran to attain nukes. In South Lebanon, UNIFIL will not attempt to stop the re-arming of Hezbo terrorist cadres.

And now, the latest evidence that UNIFIL has been serving as an intelligence arm of Hezbollah by tracking Israeli military positions and movements.

What do these several factoids all have in common? They are anti-Israeli and anti-US. The miserable little incompetent Annan has caused almost a million to die in Rwanda and subsequently in Darfur. Now perhaps he wants to achieve a Trifecta of brain-dead fecklessness by allowing Iran to become more powerful in the Middle East?

When is the US going to realize that the UN is nothing but a useless relic from a bygone era?
