  • Hezbollah using UN as human shields -- already in 2006

    From Human Right Watch, hardly a "pro-Israeli" source:

    "Hezbollah was responsible for numerous serious violations of the laws of war during its
    conflict with Israel. Its fighters indiscriminately fired thousands of rockets into Israel"

    "Hezbollah fighters fired rockets on an almost daily basis from the close proximity of UN
    observer posts in southern Lebanon, an act of shielding, at least in part, that endangered
    UNIFIL troops by drawing retaliatory Israeli fire on the nearby UN positions."
