Still No Answers On Bombing Of UN Post

This wasn't your classic case of friendly fire, where a pilot makes a split-second decision and mistakenly attacks his own. As the board of inquiry points out, the bomb that killed Hess-von Kruedener was part of a seven-hour attack on July 25, 2006, that saw Israel lob 14 aerial bombs and 19 artillery rounds at the clearly marked UN post. It also concluded that the lethal bomb was deployed after repeated UN pleas to the Israelis that they cease fire. At one point, the report says, a senior UN commander told his Israeli counterpart: "You are killing my people." The board noted that Israel has acknowledged receiving these warnings; most notably one sent 40 minutes prior to the fatal bombing. Yet for reasons the Canadian inquiry was unable to ascertain, it continued its attack. http://www.thestar.com/Canada/Columnist/article/305444
