Israel at War?

[Rudey]

Let me assist you in your reading: " While the possibility cannot be ruled out completely".

It's great that you place all blame on Israel and America and it's perfectly fine that terrorists use the UN and civilians as human shields. You're much too giving though in your blame.

Again, the UN needs to concern itself with how it's being used as an accessory to the murder of Israeli civilians.

In fact I'll help you out with the conclusions:
"(a) The distribution of impacts at Qana shows two distinct concentrations, whose mean points of impact are about 140 metres apart. If the guns were converged, as stated by the Israeli forces, there should have been only one main point of impact.

(b) The pattern of impacts is inconsistent with a normal overshooting of the declared target (the mortar site) by a few rounds, as suggested by the Israeli forces.

(c) During the shelling, there was a perceptible shift in the weight of fire from the mortar site to the United Nations compound.

(d) The distribution of point impact detonations and air bursts makes it improbable that impact fuses and proximity fuses were employed in random order, as stated by the Israeli forces.

(e) There were no impacts in the second target area which the Israeli forces claim to have shelled.

(f) Contrary to repeated denials, two Israeli helicopters and a remotely piloted vehicle were present in the Qana area at the time of the shelling.

While the possibility cannot be ruled out completely, it is unlikely that the shelling of the United Nations compound was the result of gross technical and/or procedural errors."

As opposed to say the IDF which directly murders UN troops and civilians?

Murder is intentional and pre-meditated and the possibility that it wasn't intentional has been shown.

Again, it's good to know you support Hezbollah and the terrorists that attack civilians and then hide among civilians as well.

I find it ironic you consider the deaths of those UN officials to be so much more important than the thousands of Israeli deaths that the UN continuously ignores and condones.
