Default Report Accuses Hezbollah of Indiscriminate Attacks on Civilians in '06 War

BEIRUT, Aug. 29 -- An international human rights group has concluded that Lebanon's Hezbollah movement indiscriminately attacked civilians during its conflict with Israel last summer, a finding that prompted denunciations from both the Lebanese government and Hezbollah.

In that climate, New York-based Human Rights Watch canceled a news conference it had planned to hold Thursday in Beirut to release the report, and its officials said they were being unfairly silenced.

The 126-page report found that "as a party of an armed conflict governed by international humanitarian law," Hezbollah had "violated fundamental prohibitions against deliberate and indiscriminate attacks against civilians."

Lobbing rockets into Israel targeting anything and nothing to kill Civilians?

Guess the U.N. soldiers didn't help them enough? That faded pretty quick didn't it? Looks like the Libs/U.N. got egg on their face.

How dare the news media tell the truth about these murderous bastards. We all know they would never do such a thing. Arabs and muslims are all simple peace loving people

How dare Hizbullah try and retaliate against Israel!

Sure, the IDF kills 30,000 Lebanese civilians, but those damn Katusyah rockets are the real killers!

How about posting a linked source to the 30,000 Civilians killed? Was it the same dead body dug up and displayed 30,000 times?

You do know that Hezbollah kinda lies a lot?

The green helmet guy worked hard and heavy to display the same dead bodies in different poses of Death.

I have some interesting Photoshopped pics of reuseable Dead Lebanonese Civilians being laid about, with some extremely clean toys placed here and there for effect.

Also got some pics of dismantled Ambulances supposedly hit by Israeli Missles.. Funny how the holes look like AK47 rounds or a chisel punched them, and nothing burnt, no paint, nothing. Looks like children tore the thing apart..

Also, describe a Civilian.. without AK47 and without uniform?

It was from a, how can you say, site that supports freedom for Lebanon.

Amnesty INternational and the UN had this to say:

Quote:
Strikes on Lebanon's civilian population and infrastructure include Rafik Hariri International Airport, ports, a lighthouse, grain silos,[51] bridges, roads, factories, ambulances and relief trucks,[52] mobile telephone and television stations,[53] fuel containers and service stations,[54] and the country's largest dairy farm Liban Lait.[55]

An "initial assessment" Amnesty International report on Israeli attacks on civilian infrastructure states that "the evidence strongly suggests that the extensive destruction of public works, power systems, civilian homes and industry was deliberate and an integral part of the military strategy, rather than "collateral damage" – incidental damage to civilians or civilian property resulting from targeting military objectives."[56] UN Undersecretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator Jan Egeland called Israel's offensive "disproportionate" and declared that the "horrific" leveling of "block after block" of buildings in Beirut "makes it a violation of humanitarian law."[
Man, I'm glad Israel knocked out that dairy farm! Lord knows what those jihadists could do with a proper calcium supplement.

Yeah, like the lebanese need to photoshop anything to find a victim from an Israeli attack...

Oh...these ambulances:

Quote:
On 13 July three Red Cross volunteers were wounded when an ambulance was hit.[102]

On 18 July the IDF attacked a convoy of ambulances and trucks operated by the United Arab Emirates Red Crescent (UAERC) on the road between Damascus and Beirut. One truck was destroyed, two were damaged and four passenger vehicles were damaged, causing injuries.[103]

According to CNN's Paula Zahn on 24 July, the Red Cross said that "an Israeli missile hit two clearly marked Red Cross ambulances that were parked inside the Lebanese town of Qana evacuating civilians—the wounded included a 60-year-old woman and 12-year-old boy who's now in a coma."
So all these ambulances weren't hit by missiles, and the Red Cross is covering up this as being Israel's doing in order to protect the Hezbullah fighters who shot rescue workers giving urgent medical aid to wounded Lebanese civilians, who were wounded from, as it says above and the map provided in the link confirms, Israels "indiscriminate bombing" of Lebanon.

Hmmm.


Quote:

Describe an Israeli civilian over 18 who is not part of the reserve defense forces. That pretty much clears up almost Hezbullah attack as being aimed at military forces.

But anyway, sure, here are some victims:

I'm afraid I had to remove every URL from my post, since I haven't made 15 posts as of yet.

That rule kind of makes defending your points prety tough.
