Drinking tea with Israel and Hizbollah
Although the strike against the Unifil wasn’t deliberate it most certainly not was an accident. There has been lot of debate in Jerusalem Post and other Israeli medias that the Unifil in the Southern Lebanon hasn’t just been insignificant but also harmful to Israel. They seem to see Unifil as impotent and not capable of stopping the Hizbollah’s strikes. The Unifill has been blaimed of sheltering the Hizbollah and “drinking tee with them”.
Although the “tee drinking” is most likely exaggeration, the Hizbollah is known of abusing the UN bases. On the other hand the Unifil needs to stay in contact with all the armed parties on the area which probably required tremendous amounts of tea and a strong stomach.
Sorry, what do you mean when you say that it might not have been deliberate, but it wasn’t an accident either? Doesn’t it have to be either or?
