INCIDENT U QANI - UPDATE

Istraga izraelske vojske ustanovila je da se zgrada u Qani (Kani) srušila oko osam sati nakon djelovanja izraelskog zrakoplovstva.

Napad na strukturu u selu Qani dogodio se između ponoć i jedan. Vremenska šupljina između vremena kolapsa zgrade i vremena udara je nejasna,

rekao je brigadni general Amir Eshel, čelni čovjek Glavnog stožera IAF-a - izraelskog zrakoplovstva novinarima na konferenciji u Ministarstvu obrane u Tel Avivu.

Brigadni general Eshel i šef operativnog stožera (Operational Branch) izraelske vojske, general-bojnik (Major General) Gadi Eisnkot rekli su da struktura nije bila napadnuta u vrijeme kad se srušila - oko 8 sati ujutro.

IDF vjeruje da je i Hizb Allin eksploziv u zgradi mogao biti iza eksplozije, koja je uzrokovala kolaps.

Druga mogućnost je da je zgrada ostala stajati nekoliko sati od napada, ali je onda ipak došlo do kolapsa.

Moguće je da su u zgradi bile pohranjene (s)tvari, koje s konačno mogle dovesti do eksplozije. Ovo govorim vrlo oprezno, jer do ovog trenutka ne znam kako objasniti ovu vremensku pukotinu od napada do kolapsa građevine.

rekao je brogadni general Eshel.

Za to vrijeme iz Libanona stižu informacije od 60 poginulih u kolapsu zgrade u selu Qana.

Iz blogosfere:

There are other mysteries. The roof of the building was intact. Journalist Ben Wedeman of CNN noted that there was a larger crater next to the building, but observed that the building appeared not to have collapsed as a result of the Israeli strike.

Why would the civilians who had supposedly taken shelter in the basement of the building not leave after the post-midnight attack? They just went back to sleep and had the bad luck to wait for the building to collapse in the morning?

What we do know is that sometime after dawn a call went hour to journalists and rescue workers to come to the scene. And come they did.

While Hezbollah and its apologists have been claiming that civilians could not freely flee the scene due to Israeli destruction of bridges and roads, the journalists and rescue teams from nearby Tyre had no problem getting there.

Lebanese rescue teams did not start evacuating the building until the morning and only after the camera crews came. The absence of a real rescue effort was explained by saying that equipment was lacking. There were no scenes of live or injured people being extracted.

There was little blood, CNN’s Wedeman noted: all the victims, he concluded, appeared to have died while as they were sleeping — sleeping, apparently, through thunderous Israeli air attacks. Rescue workers equipped with cameras were removing the bodies from the same opening in the collapsed structure. Journalists were not allowed near the collapsed building.

Rescue workers filmed as they went carried the victims on the stretchers, occasionally flipping up the blankets so that cameras could show the faces and bodies of the dead.

But Israelis steeled to scenes of carnage from Palestinian suicide bombings and Hezbollah rocket attack could not help but notice that these victims did not look like our victims. Their faces were ashen gray. Their limbs appeared to have stiffened, from rigor mortis. Neither were effects that would have resulted from an Israeli attack hours before. These were bodies that looked like they had been dead for days.

Još jedna moguća verzija s blogosfere... u očekivanju potpunijeg izviješća izraelske vjske:

It seems to me there is a consistent timeline.

1) IDF hits the building at 1:00 am. Civilians sleeping in the building are killed, mostly by overpressure (few visible injuries).

The bodies are not recovered immediately in the dark during ongoing IDF attacks in the area.

2) Building collapses around 8:00 am. Maybe it was weakened and a nearby hit dropped it, maybe some other munition finally "cooked off."

Building collapse is not as complete as WTC, does not create the same volume of dust coverage.

3) Rescuers dig out victims showing rigor mortis (some 7 hours after death).

4) The rescue activity is also a political activity. Some of the rescuers dig out the victims, others carry the victims out for pictures. The carriers are photogenic and fairly clean.

It is still possible that extra bodies were planted.

It appears that some of the "rescuers" are as concerned with the photo opportunity as they are with the rescue effort.

It is certain that weapons were stored in, and launched near, a building that housed civilians. This is a war crime.

Update: verzija A:

According to one of the neighbors, the house that was bombed was a children's shelter. The residents who agreed to speak said that there were two families who funded the shelter because of its proximity to the mosque. All the residents denied Israeli claims that Hizbullah fighters roamed the streets or that rockets were shot from their neighborhood.

Verzija B:

National Public Radio’s correspondent reported that residents of that building had left and the victims were non-residents who chose to shelter in the building that night. They were “too poor” to leave the town, one resident told CNN’s Wedeman. Who were these people?

Verzija C:

The tobacco farmer's house was thought to be the safest place in town, perched on an innocuous edge of Lebanon's Bekka Valley..."We told the women and children to hide here in the basement. We thought they would be safe," said Jalah Chalhoub, another relative, wringing his hands still crusted with mud...
