1. Is it not the same UNDOF that few...
Arie R. ,   Ashkelon, IL   (01.20.15)
months ago was rescued by Israel after they run away from their positions and/or captured, following a fart on the friendly Syrian side...? But they can tell that it was an Israeli drone. Good! At last real DOF.
2. Lebanese and Iranians
MadDad ,   Johannesburg RSA   (01.20.15)
Surely the presence of Lebanese terrorists and Iranian covert forces on the Israeli border is also a violation of the agreement between Israel and Syria?
3. Useless Nations should disarm terrorist Hezbollah
C   (01.20.15)
unscr 1701 makes it illegal for hezbollah to possess arms. the resolution also makes it illegal for any state to arm hezbollah. yet syria is a major provider of arms, including missiles, to hezbollah.
4. Syria has been waging proxy war against Israel
CJK   (01.20.15)
syria has been arming hezbollah throughout hezbollahs existence knowing full well that hezbollah will use those arms against israel. the advanced missiles that syria has provided hezbollah have no other use than waging war against israel. syria has also allowed iran to use its territory to transfer weapons to hezbollah.
5. This is the ONLY time they comment!!
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (01.20.15)
what the hell are these nincompoops up to? Violation after violation from the Hez and Iran - and they say NOTHING. UN is a pack dickheads!
6. UNDOF resurfaced
Csaba Clujeanu' ,   Cluj/Romania   (01.20.15)
How they know is Israeli drone? Perhaps was Hezbollah's drone...? If I remember well the bunch of iranian/hezbollah party left a UNDOF base earlier.......later they catched the 77 virgin express . Anyway...UNDOF or any UN base in Golan heights better to keep mum....they have no guts...
7. OMG a drone! What sort of silly name is Jihad anyway?
Jonathan ,   New Zealand   (01.20.15)
8. Drones a violation? Really?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.20.15)
Since drones were not invented in 1974, I find it difficult to understand how their use can be a violation of a cessation of hostilities agreement. I do know that Israel reserved the right to overfly -- we'd never give that up -- so methinks the United Nations is blowing smoke. Gosh! Who'd have thought that such an "esteemed" organization as the United Nations would out-and-out lie! I'd like some more detail on whether turning their heads while Arab insurgents against Israel re-arm qualifies as a violation of the 1974 cessation of hostilities. I'm pretty certain it does.
9. These guys been sucking money 40 years?
US citizen ,   US   (01.20.15)
No wonder UN doesn't have money to do things that really need to be done, like occupy Nigeria/Somalia. There is no such thing as civilization when Boko Haram does what it does without intl response.
10. United Nothing Dimwits Or Fools also reported seeing
A ,   Belgium   (01.20.15)
an owl, a stork, three frisbees and a flying camel before the alleged Israeli strike. All observances verified by Bunky Moon himself.
