For years, UNIFIL reported that they just couldn't find any Hezbollah military activity in Lebanon. Now Israel is discovering one tunnel after another, dug under the border in breach of UNSCR 1701. Was UNIFIL intentionally blind? Will the Security Council on Wednesday speak out? pic.twitter.com/5FVFvhNoYz

UN Watch's @HillelNeuer visited the Israel-Lebanon border today to view the terror tunnels that Hezbollah has dug into Israel. When the UN Security Council meets tomorrow, it must condemn these gross violations of their own Resolution 1701.

Today is Nikki Haley's last day as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. History will record that, facing an assembly of dictatorships and their apologists, she stood up for truth, fairness and human rights, and that she did so with courage, eloquence and grace. I will miss her. pic.twitter.com/oAw5Ydh9se

10.
