(Wall Street Journal) Editorial - The UN peacekeepers in Lebanon keep no peace. The program failed but never died. After the 2006 war between Israel and Hizbullah, it stood by as Hizbullah turned southern Lebanon into an armed camp again. The Trump Administration has agreed with France on a resolution that gives the peacekeepers 16 months to conclude their operations. The peacekeepers have been Hizbullah's human shields. They failed so abysmally to keep armed terrorists out of southern Lebanon that the Israel Defense Forces had to do the job for them last year, after 11 months of Hizbullah rocket fire. When the IDF finally advanced, UNIFIL refused to move and then blamed Israel for endangering peacekeepers by rooting out Hizbullah. Israel found UNIFIL's area of responsibility teeming with weapons and Hamas-style tunnels. Hizbullah had dug them under UNIFIL's nose - in one case 110 yards from its outpost. In a viral Lebanese video from June, a plainclothes Hizbullah militant slaps a UNIFIL soldier, who then backs off - a nice metaphor. 2025-08-31 00:00:00Full Article
