Kofi Annan accuses Israel of "deliberate targeting" of UN Observers And then, being the judicious diplomat that he is, he immediately rushed out and accused Israel of an "apparently deliberate targeting" of the UN observers. Without the benefit of an investigation and in the face of all common sense, Annan apparently sees it as an open-and-shut case. Next stop, The Hague. Kofi, can you provide any remotely conceivable reason why Israel would deliberately target UN observers? Granted, they're as useless as one-armed jugglers, but deliberately kill them? Why? There are two things going on here: the fog of war and the fog of Kofi's thinking. In the fog of war unexpected things sometimes happen during the chaos, mistakes are made, wrong targets are hit, sometimes there's friendly fire, things can go horribly wrong. In the fog of Kofi's thinking, Israel is the real threat to world peace, not the terrorists or their state sponsors. Israel is the one who should show restraint, not Hezbollah who has fired thousands of rockets and missiles into Israel for the crime of daring to exist. Israel is the bad guy for bombing Lebanese infrastructure, but Lebanon is utterly blameless for allowing itself to be hijacked by terrorists whose goal is the destruction of Israel. It's Kofi in la-la land, a parallel universe where up is down and down is up and everything is nonsense. But trying to destroy the vicious terrorist organization Hezbollah is a serious, no-nonsense endeavor for which Israel ought to be thanked, not condemned. The last thing Israel needs is Annan's bug-eyed accusations. It only leads to more bad press and the world is full of people stupid enough to believe it.
