Ahead
of tomorrow's special meeting of the United Nations Security Council, UN Watch
Executive Director Hillel Neuer visited the Israel-Lebanon border to
examine the Hezbollah terror tunnels that have just been discovered.
The
cross-border tunnels, a massive, multi-million dollar building project financed
and masterminded by the Islamic Republic of Iran, were designed for a Hezbollah
surprise attack against Israel in which gunmen would suddenly emerge into
nearby Israeli towns, in order to kidnap and murder civilians.
The
tunnels dug under and into Israel by Iran's proxy terrorist organization amount
to a flagrant violation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701—which
prohibits any military activity or even presence of Hezbollah south of the
Litani River—and constitute a threat to the peace under the UN Charter.
Moreover,
at lease one tunnel was dug from a civilian home in Lebanon — a war crime under
international humanitarian law because Hezbollah sought to use Lebanese
civilians as human shields to protect their military infrastructure.
When the UN Security Council
meets tomorrow, they must send a strong message by demanding that the
Government of Lebanon—and the world body’s own UNIFIL forces—implement the
requirements of Resolution 1701, concretely and immediately
