Although this is hardly new news, I suspect this story has been unknown to many and is worth publicizing.

Claim: U.N. filmed Hezbollah kidnappings - Allegations arose Wednesday U.N. peacekeepers in northern Is...:

JERUSALEM, Sept. 6 (UPI) -- Allegations arose Wednesday U.N. peacekeepers in northern Israel cooperated with Hezbollah militants in the abductions of three Israeli soldiers in 2000.

The claim came following the airing of a documentary film on both Israeli and Lebanese television Tuesday night showing the capture of the three men, the Arutz Sheva broadcast network said.

The families of the three men, whose bodies were returned in a 2004 prisoner exchange with Hezbollah, accused the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon of withholding information about film footage shot by peacekeepers.

The father of Ya'akov Avitan claimed a UNIFIL member filmed the kidnappings and then sold the film to Hezbollah terrorists.

'Hezbollah made sure to erase the United Nations' cooperation in the film -- but the U.N.'s lies become clear here. They filmed the kidnapping and knew what was happening all along,' he said.

There was no immediate U.N. response to the allegations in the report."
