Well, when you don’t do your jobs and don’t force the Hez to stop firing missiles into Israeli civilian areas for a year, which forces the IDF to take action, and you ignore the notification of said actions taking place near you and refuse to evacuate, then the results are on you.

Maybe it should be a crime to completely fail at enforcing the resolution they were put there for in the first place.
Edit: Also, it costs us money!
“In 2023, Congress appropriated $143 million to UNIFIL, accounting for over one-quarter of the peacekeeping body’s approximately $510 million budget. Since the war in 2006, Washington has spent more than $2.5 billion to support UNIFIL.”
So we pay for the Israeli bombs, then we pay for aid to the bombed areas, all the while we pay these UN jokers who are supposed to be keeping Hezbollah away from the border. So basically we are getting triple fucked with our money going to all of this shit.

What a useless Sec Gen this GUTIERREZ really is !
Israel asked UNIFIL to evacuate. Gutierrez should ORDER them to leave.
After 2 decades of supporting Hezbollah in VIOLATION of the UN own resolution, is UNIFIL now trying to become Hizbollah’s martyrs ?
Useless Gutierrez, do your fuckin job, for a change.

**UN**: Attacks on UNIFIL are a war crime!
**Israel**: Then please evacuate them so they’re not in harm’s way.
**UN**: NO!

Burning through $500M/year with negative results may be a war crime… Oops, that’s just UNIFaIL budget.

It comes down to the UN being an absolute joke. Most of the time it seems like the good things they do are in spite of themselves. Like the NORDBAT 2 stuff that happened in former Yugoslavia only being effective in their mission to protect civilians because they ignored the UN and their own government to do the right thing because they understood the situation on the ground.
If the peacekeepers they send aren’t authorized to actually keep the peace they should be pulled out.

When the UNIFIL aids enemy combatants they *become* enemy combatants.
Imagine not only refusing to enforce the resolution you were put there specifically to do, then going as far as allowing Hezbollah to use your positions, and having the gall to complain about Israeli defensive actions.

Then get out of the way. It’s not like any useful peace keeping is taking place is it. UNIFIL just another terrorist simping organisation.

If a bunch of embedded tunnels and weapons caches are found like two or so football fields away from your base, and you are refusing to shelter when tanks roll through, you are enabling one of the two factions. That’s, like, the exact opposite of UNIFIL’s mandate and 1701.

It is hilarious how people here are calling for attacking UN troops while still pretending they are the moral side. This is the exact same shit russian citizens who have been fed propaganda think about the Ukraine war.

When peacekeepers have failed to hold the peace they should admit it and leave, not be a willing human shield for both their cynical home country’s diplomatic corp and Islamic terrorists.

A fundamental principle if we believe in any kind of world order is that if UN Peacekeepers are deployed they must be respected. Israel is without doubt behaving like a rogue state now. We condemn states like Russia for invading Ukraine and ignoring UN resolutions but for some reasons Americans in particular want to give Israel a free pass. Yes they have a right to self defence. Self defence does not include ordering UN peacekeepers about and shooting at them.

It seems the IDF mistakenly “backed” into the UNIFIL base for safety. what a joke.
“According to UNIFIL, “At around 4:30 a.m., while peacekeepers were in shelters, two IDF Merkava tanks destroyed the position’s main gate and forcibly entered the position.” UNIFIL accused the IDF of putting the lives of its peacekeepers in danger and said the tanks left about 45 minutes after it protested their presence.
**What the IDF says:** The IDF, however, said it had been trying to evacuate IDF troops nearby who had been fired upon by a “large barrage of anti-tank missiles.”
It said multiple troops had been injured in the initial barrage, two of them severely, and that a further attack targeted the tank as it “backed” into the UNIFIL post.”
