Louise Arbour who is a Lieberal appointee from Canada made a statement which is totally ridiculous.
The UN has posted 1,700 UN Troops in Southern Lebanon to maintain the peace between Lebanon and Israel. What effect do these troops have? NONE !

UN warning on Mid-East war crimes
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour said international law stressed the need to protect civilians.
There is an obligation on all parties to respect the "principle of proportionality", she said.
About 300 Lebanese, most of them civilians, have been killed in the violence. Thirty Israelis, including 15 civilians, have also been killed.
Indiscriminate shelling of cities constitutes a foreseeable and unacceptable targeting of civilians... Similarly, the bombardment of sites with alleged military significance, but resulting invariably in the killing of innocent civilians, is unjustifiable
The UN reported on Wednesday that about 100 Palestinians, civilians and fighters, have been killed since the start of the Israeli offensive in Gaza in late July.
Both crises were precipitated by the capture by Hamas and Hezbollah of Israeli soldiers in cross-border operations into Israel.
Along with a massive shelling campaign across Lebanon and Gaza by Israel, Hezbollah has been firing barrages of missiles into northern Israel, targeting urban areas, and Palestinian militants continue their rocket fire into Israel.
"Indiscriminate shelling of cities constitutes a foreseeable and unacceptable targeting of civilians," Ms Arbour said.
"Similarly, the bombardment of sites with alleged military significance, but resulting invariably in the killing of innocent civilians, is unjustifiable."

The UN has been a sick joke for decades. Another example is Bosnia-Hercovagenia where the UN troops sold fuel and other materials to the criminal elements there. As far as peackeeping goes. Ziltch happened.
And as for Hamas and Hezbollah yup yup yup !! UN supports them but not Israel .
