Another U.N. scandel ignored

http://www.townhall.com/columnists/b...20040602.shtml

Suddenly, a large explosion blew open the border gate, and Hezbollah terrorists, disguised as U.N. peacekeepers in U.N. gear with U.N. vehicles, stormed across the border, spraying bullets, firing shoulder-fired missiles and launching tear-gas grenades. After a few minutes, the three Israelis went down, seriously wounded. Quickly, the terrorists bound and gagged the Israelis, smuggled them across the border, dumped them into two U.N. vehicles and sped away. Five hours later, the U.N. vehicles used in the attacks were recovered, approximately 10 to 12 kilometers from the scene of the kidnapping. The vehicles contained U.N. markings, explosives, Kalashnikov assault rifles, other equipment, and the blood of the wounded Israeli soldiers.

Rumors leaked of a videotape taken by three U.N. personnel the day after the abduction. The videotape was thought to contain footage of the Hezbollah terrorists in U.N. garb with U.N. equipment, stopping U.N. personnel from removing the U.N. vehicles used in the attack. After months of Israeli requests to see the unedited tape, the United Nations finally admitted that a tape did exist but refused to allow Israel to see it unedited. Instead, they blurred out the faces of the Hezbollah terrorists.

The United Nations and Red Cross have been providing cover for terrorists -- literally. And American taxpayers are footing some of the bill.

Last week, an Israeli television station aired footage of armed Arab terrorists in southern Gaza using an ambulance owned and operated by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA). Palestinian gunmen used the UNRWA emergency vehicle as getaway transportation after murdering six Israeli soldiers in Gaza City on May 11. The footage shows two ambulances with flashing lights pull onto a street. Shots and shouts ring out during the nighttime raid. A gang of militants piles into one of the supposedly neutral ambulances, clearly marked "U.N." with the agency's blue flag flying from the roof, which then speeds away from the scene.

AccessMiddleEast.org, a nonprofit global news monitoring service, posted the video (shot by a Reuters TV cameraman) on its Web site last week.......... International relief officials are in stubborn denial about the abuse of their emergency vehicles and hospital credentials by terrorists. They claim the videotaped May 11 ambulance-assisted attack was an isolated incident and that the driver was forced to transport the gunmen. But this ambulances-for-terrorists program has been going on for years. And "humanitarian" workers have been willing collaborators.

According to the Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center at the Center for Special Studies (CSS), senior UNRWA employee Nahed Rashid Ahmed Attalah confessed to using his official U.N. vehicle to bypass security and smuggle arms, explosives, and terrorists to and from attacks. He was in charge of distributing food supplies to Palestinian refugees. Nidal 'Abd al-Fataah 'Abdallah Nizal, a Hamas activist, worked as an UNRWA ambulance driver and admitted he had used an emergency vehicle to transport munitions to terrorists.

Some politicians want to give the UN more power over US sovereignty.

Frightening.
