Beirut crowd has tantrum at UN headquarters

Reuters:

Lebanese protesters broke into the United Nations headquarters in Beirut on Sunday, smashing windows and ransacking offices, after an Israeli air strike killed at least 40 people in south Lebanon.

Several thousand people massed outside the building in downtown Beirut chanting "Death to Israel, death to America. We sacrifice our blood and souls for Lebanon."

By early afternoon, most protesters had drifted away leaving a few hundred people milling in a car park opposite the building, which was being protected by a line of Lebanese soldiers.

This is pretty typical low functioning mob action in Muslim countries. Ridiculous chants of "death" to their perceived enemies shows their impotence and their manipulation by cynical character's like Hezballah's Nasrallah. Naxrallah got the victims he has been trying to get since the start of this war. He will probably have some success at exploiting these victims he has worked so hard to get. But, their blood is on his hands. By refusing to wear identifying uniforms as required by the Geneva Conventions and by using human shields, Nasrallah and Hezballah were inviting the very thing they now wail about. They are one of the most disgusting enemies the world has ever seen.
