 Kofi -- this is what a deliberate attempt at targeting a UN facility looks like. | GAZA (Reuters) - Palestinian protesters stormed the main U.N. compound in Gaza City on Sunday during a demonstration against Israel's bombing of southern Lebanon that killed around 60 civilians, witnesses and U.N. staff said.
Hundreds of members of the Islamic Jihad militant group, some rolling their eyes throwing stones and others having gun sex firing assault rifles, attacked the compound at the end of a rally, witnesses said. At least five people were wounded, police said.
U.N. staff were inside the compound at the time, but managed to escape after U.N. guards let off tear gas canisters. A U.N. official said the compound, which includes scores of buildings, was ransacked and eight vehicles damaged.
Just deduct it from the next aid check, right Kofi? | Members of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's special guard arrived shortly after the assault began and managed to disperse the crowd by having more spirited gun sex firing into the air.
Witnesses in Gaza said extensive damage had been caused to the U.N. compound, from where the world body directs its relief and aid operations for the Gaza Strip's 1.4 million people. The attack came hours after thousands of Lebanese demonstrators deliberately attacked the U.N. headquarters in Beirut, smashing windows and ransacking offices.
Several thousand people massed outside the building in the center of the capital chanting "Death to Israel, death to America. We sacrifice our blood and souls for Lebanon."
Uh-huh, sure, you guys can't even defend Gaza. |
