More on the Israeli Air Strike

From MSN:

The bomb made a direct hit on the building and shelter of the observer post in the town of Khiam near the eastern end of the border with Israel, said Milos Struger, spokesman for the U.N. peacekeeping force in Lebanon known as UNIFIL.

[...]

Rescue workers [tried] to clear the rubble, but Israeli firing continued even during the rescue operation."

Koffi Anan responded thusly:

"I am shocked and deeply distressed by the apparently deliberate targeting by Israel Defense Forces of a UN Observer post in southern Lebanon that has killed two UN military observers, with two more feared dead."

The U.N. has come down hard on Israel for its indiscriminate bombing of civilian areas, for instance here, and Israel is sending U.N. leaders a message...a message encoded in dead bodies.

"Supporters" would be naive to think that the Israelis are not proficient in this language.
