#1 In theory a UNIFIL force should serve as a tripwire. I think all concerned understand that like Rawanda, it is a tripwire connected to an explosive device where the charge has been removed and a yoyo substituted. The only conequence to the killing of UNIFIL personnel is that the West will denounce itself and Israel. Unlike a tripwire, a yoyo string is no end of fun to pull repeatedly. I think most of the UNIFIL personnel will soon agree that it sucks to be a patsy.

#2 "At least three Spanish UN peacekeepers were killed and six others wounded in an attack on a UNIFIL patrol"

But..but..but Spain rolled over for the moslems! Isn't that supposed to keep their people safe?

#3 Unifil troops, if everbody gets to go home, will now be most satisfied to sacrifice just 5 members for a fatter wallet while serving there. What was Tipsy Livni saying about such jokers ever really fighting?
