Lebanon files UN complaint over Israeli bombardment

W460

Following consultations with caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati, caretaker Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib asked Lebanon’s permanent mission to the U.N. to file a complaint with the U.N. Security Council over the dawn Israeli bombardment of areas near the southern city of Tyre.

“The deliberate Israeli shelling and aggression at dawn today of areas in south Lebanon represent a flagrant violation of Lebanon’s sovereignty and a blatant breach of U.N. Security Council Resolution 1701,” the Foreign Ministry said.

The Israeli attack “threatens the stability that the Lebanese south was enjoying,” the Ministry added.

Can any citizen of Lebanon file a complaint with the U.N. Security Council? It would be a lengthy document, even without mentioning our neighbors to the South ...

I wish to file a cheeseburger order with extra coleslaw (Lebanese style) and large flies and diet coca (free from chems)!

ooooohhh... they filed a complaint with the UN. Yeah the useless UN is going to really reprimand Israel. What a bunch of losers. Instead of getting control of the country and stripping every foreign militia of it's arms and throw them out of the country and put the Lebanese Army there you go and complain to the UN. This country should be dissolved once and for all. It's a failed state.

Why in the world do we still have armed militias besides the fanatic one still roaming in south Lebanon?
