“Withdraw the UN forces, they are in danger”
“Danger from what?”
“Of what I’m going to do to them if you don’t withdraw them”

The devil went to the UN looking for more souls to steal

Citizens, Unicef, the UN, Red Cross. Is there anyone that ISNT a human shield?

Remember when I was touring Israel, there were marked U.N. vehicles just inside the Israel border . The U.N. members were eating, relaxing and enjoying a peaceful time at a park near the Dead Sea. I asked some locals what the U.N. was doing here. The response was "observing the Syrian civil war". The U.N. is pathetic and a waste of tax payers money.

The US and Israel both need to get out of the UN.

[gavinlevy]

The UN has shown that it should be completely defunded.

Look up " Greater Israel ' and you will see how worse this situation is for everyone.

If the UN peacekeepers were doing their jobs, they wouldn’t be lobbing missiles and rockets over the borders over there.

[gete]

Where were the peacekeepers for the last 70 yrs?

[mariasantisteban]

Get rid of the useless UN. What a waste of taxpayer money!

[NoWindNoSunNoPower]

How come the peacekeepers didn’t stop the rockets?

[illegalsmile]

AIPAC needs to be registered as a foreign entity

[StrangeScaryNewEngland]

Forbes, thank you for the clear, accurate captions. Most news sites don't put any effort into them, and you end up with crappy auto-generated broken captions. Appreciate it.

Get them out. Why aren’t Lebanese troops defending their own country??0why aren’t. The Lebanese army employed!

[reagandanielAfrican]

I wonder how UN ignored Irans proxy war! Did they ever condemn Iran?

[GeneralMilosivic-dbio]

UNIFIL have let down the Lebanese people and the force should be abolished. Total waste of 18 years and Billions spent on them facilitating Hez balls.
