HIZB ALLINA ZLOUPORABA CIVILA

31 srpnja, 2006

Ich wohnte bis 2002 in einem kleinen Dorf im Süden nahe Mardschajun, das mehrheitlich von Schiiten wie mir bewohnt ist. Nach Israels Verlassen des Libanon dauerte es nicht lange, bis die Hisbollah bei uns und in allen anderen Ortschaften das Sagen hatte. Als erfolgreiche Widerstandskämpfer begrüßt, erschienen sie waffenstarrend und legten auch bei uns Raketenlager in Bunkern an. Die Sozialarbeit der Partei Gottes bestand darin, auf diesen Bunkern eine Schule und ein Wohnhaus zu bauen! Ein lokaler Scheich erklärte mir lachend, dass die Juden in jedem Fall verlieren, entweder weil die Raketen auf sie geschossen werden oder weil sie, wenn sie die Lager angriffen, von der Weltöffentlichkeit verurteilt werden ob der dann zivilen Toten. Die libanesische Bevölkerung interessiert diese Leute überhaupt nicht, sie benutzen sie als Schilder und wenn tot als Propaganda. Solange sie dort existieren, wird es keine Ruhe und Frieden geben.

Dr. Mounir Herzallah,
U djelomičnom prijevodu:
...Do 2002. godine živio sam u malom južnolibanonskom selu u blizini Mardshajunda, koje je bio većinom naseljeno šijama, kao što sam i ja. Nakon što je Izrael napustio Libanon, Hizb Alli nije dugo trebalo da ispuni vakuum. Primljeni kao uspješni pokret otpora i naoružani do zuba, oni su i u našem naselju uskladištili svoje oružje u novosagrađenim bunkerima. Socijalni rad Božje stranke sastojao se u izgradnji škole i stambenog naselja iznad tih bunkera! Lokalni šeik, smiješeći se, objasnio mi je da će Židovi svakako izgubiti jer će, ili rakete pogoditi njih, ili će - ako budu napali skladišta raketa, biti osuđeni od svjetskog javnog mnijenja radi mrtvih civila. Ove ljude nije briga za libanonsko stanovništvo, oni ih koriste kao žive štitove, i, kad jednom stradaju, kao propagandu. Dokle god Hizb Allah tamo egzistira, mira neće biti...

NAŠOJ BRAĆI, SINOVIMA IZRAELA U DIJASPORI:

These days, when we are “between the straits”, and in these desperate hours, our brothers Sons of Israel in the State of Israel face hard and murderous times from our enemies and those who are up to destroy us.

While in the battle front our brave soldiers in the Israeli Defense Forces risk their lives in the air and sea to repel those who turn upon us, and defend our people and the cities in Israel.

I call upon our Jewish brothers in the Diaspora, wherever they are, to pray for the well-being of our soldiers and their success this Tuesday at 19:00
(Israel time , for the recovery of the wounded, and the return of the captives to the loving arms of their families all safe and sound.

INCIDENT U QANI - UPDATE

30 srpnja, 2006

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.
Link

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?
Link

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...

INCIDENT U QANI

Glasnogovornik izraelske vojske:
Jutros, 30. srpnja 2006. godine, izraelsko ratno zrakoplovstvo napalo je raketni lanser u podrčju sela Qane; s tog područja su stotine raketa lansirane prema izraelskom gradu Nahariji i zajednicama u zapadnoj Galileji.

Izraelska vojska branit će državljane Izraela od Hizb Allinih napada i odgovornost za sve civilne žrtve pada na Hizb Allina leđa, jer su isti libanonska predgrađa pretvorili u ratni front, ispaljivanjem raketa iz civilnih područja.

Stanovnici ove regije, a posebno stanovnici sela Qane, danima su bili upozoravani da napuste selo. Osamnaest izraelskih civila je ubijeno, a preko 400 ranjeno raketama ispaljenih s ovog područja, koje su ugrozile živote desetinama tisuća izraelskih građana.

IDF žali za svaku štetu, koju trpe neinvolvirani civili, ali ovaj je incident rezultat Hizb Allinog korištenja libanonskih civila kao živih štitova.


25. srpnja, IDF je bacao letke na arapskom, u kojem upozorava civile da se evakuiraju (letak na fotografiji posta):
Svim libanonskim građanima južno od rijeke Litani:

Zbog terorističkih napada na Državu Izrael s područja vaših sela i domova, IDF je prisiljen odgovoriti na takve aktivnosti iz vaših naselja. Radi vaše sigurnosti, pozivamo vas da se evakuirate sjeverno od rijeke Litani!
