GOTTA LOVE THE UNITED NATIONS!

It seems that Hezbollah had a bit of help in killing Israeli soldiers during their five-week war. The help came in the form of nifty little night vision goggles found by the IDF. How many? Try 250 sets found in a Hezbollah stronghold.

Now this may come as a bit of a surprise to you, but Hezbollah doesn't exactly have a manufacturing process cranking out these night vision goggles. The were made in England.

How, you ask, did they come to be in the possession of Hezbollah? It seems that these goggles were shipped from Great Britain to Iran in 2003 under a United Nations program to combat rampant drug smuggling in Iran.

So ... here's your chain of possession. From Great Britain to the United Nations. From the UN to Iran. From Iran to Hezbollah.
