With the Israeli bombing of a United Nations camp and
the killing of four UN peacekeepers, we really do seem
to be in a "deja vu all over again" phase. Already UN
Secretary General Kofi Annan is under attack for
condemning the "apparently deliberate targeting by
Israel Defense Forces [IDF] of a UN observer post".
It is reminiscent of the trouble his predecessor
Boutros Boutros-Ghali got himself into last time the
Israelis tried shock and awe on Lebanon in 1996, when
he failed to suppress a report that said pretty much
the same thing about the IDF shelling of the UN post
in Qana, which killed some 106 Lebanese civilians.
