Someone should perhaps mention that raid to the UN--specifically to UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon Michael Williams--because if we are to go by what Williams says, the question arises is the UN oblivious to Syrian raids into Lebanon:
Commenting on the Syrian situation he [UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon Michael Williams] predicted that the uprising, which has been ongoing since mid-March, will not spill into Lebanon.Wait a minute!
“The crisis in Syria will not be transferred to Lebanon…because Lebanon is different than Syria since [the former] is democratic.”
