UN peacekeepers in south Lebanon contacted Israeli troops 10 times before an Israeli bomb killed four of them, an initial UN report says.
The post was hit by a precision-guided missile after six hours of shelling, diplomats familiar with the probe say.

BEIRUT, Lebanon -- An Israeli bomb destroyed a U.N. observer post on the border in southern Lebanon, killing two peacekeepers and leaving two others feared dead in what appeared to be a deliberate strike, U.N. chief Kofi Annan said.
The bomb made a direct hit on the building and shelter of the observer post in the town of Khiyam near the eastern end of the border with Israel, said Milos Struger, spokesman for the U.N. peacekeeping force in Lebanon known as UNIFIL
Annan issued a statement saying two U.N. military observers were killed with two more feared dead. Earlier, U.S. Ambassador John Bolton said the Security Council was informed that four officers were killed, but he had no other information.
Rescue workers were trying to clear the rubble, but Israeli firing "continued even during the rescue operation," Struger said.

Are rescue workers and ambulance drivers being used as human shields also, and if so does that mean it's okay to kill them if they are? I must be missing something here. -
Stuff happens in war. Remember when NATO bombed the Chinese embassy in Kosovo? There's a conspiracy theory about that too.

And for the record, here's video of a UN ambulance picking up fighters in the Gaza strip:

Poncho, friend, we believe what we believe and only God really knows the truth of everything that is going on in the world and behind the scenes. Someday we will know the truth of history from God's POV.
But we all should know by now that guerrilla fighters hide in civilian populations and blend in with the civillians. They did that in Viet Nam, too. Crafty and cowardly like. -
