France Approves Firing At Israeli Jets In Lebanon

 

 

 

France, holding the white flags over their collective heads, has the authorization to shoot at IAF Jets in Lebanon with no objection from UNIFIL.

From the Jerusalem Post:

French soldiers in Lebanon who feel threatened by aggressive Israeli overflights are permitted to shoot at IAF fighter jets, a high-ranking French military officer told The Jerusalem Post.

Wednesday, several days after meeting with an IDF general in Paris to discuss what he said was a "blatant violation of the cease-fire."

UNIFIL’s response:

Milos Strugar, spokesman for UNIFIL, supported the French position, saying that according to the UN resolution, UNIFIL had the right to use force in self-defense, even against Israeli aircraft.

"UNIFIL has the right to take all necessary action to protect UN personnel in self-defense," he said.

The French would rather defend muslim extremists that are defecating on their country than defend Israel against these thugs.
