I don't exactly hold the UN in high regard. Some of the observers have helped Hezbollah attack Israel in the past. The UN as a whole is very anti-Israel. That doesn't mean that one can assume that what it says is wrong and I make no such assumption. However I find any argument from authority with a UN report (or in this case a claim about a UN report not the report itself) as the authority, to be a very weak argument. Even if I was willing to accept an argument from authority based on a UN report, you do not link to any official UN report, you link to an article where a person claims to have seen such reports. So if I assume he is accurately relating the information in those reports and I assume that the reports are both honest and not-mistaken, and contain all the relevant facts, than you might have something. But I don't consider those assumptions to be safe ones. Or to reply again to "Your documentation is impressive. <g>" Neither has provided anything that would reasonably be considered documentation supporting our viewpoint. Edit - But once again whatever happened in the 80s in Lebanon, Hezbollah initiated the attacks this time.
