Lebanese army soldiers fire a mortar during clashes
with fighters from the Fatah Islam militant group, at the
Palestinian refugee camp of Nahr el-Bared in the
northern city of Tripoli, Monday May 21, 2007. Lebanese
troops tightened a siege of a Palestinian refugee camp
Monday where a shadowy group suspected of ties to
al-Qaida was holed up, pounding the camp with artillery
a day after the worst eruption of violence since the end
of the country's 1975-90 civil war.

No. No. No. This never happened and won't happen. The UN only condemns the US and Israel.

Here's the latest Official statement from the UN regarding the Lebanese Government shelling of civilian Palestinians:

UN,
Office of the Spokesperson of the Secretary-General,
New York, 21 May 2007,
Statement Attributable to the Spokesperson of the Secretary-General on Lebanon
The Secretary-General is gravely concerned about the fighting in the last two days between Fatah al-Islam gunmen and the Lebanese army. The actions of Fatah al-Islam are an attack on Lebanon's stability and sovereignty. The Secretary-General welcomes the united stand taken by Palestinian factions in Lebanon denouncing these attacks on the Lebanese army. He calls on all sides to do their utmost to protect innocent civilians.

The Secretary-General also strongly condemns yesterday's terrorist bombing in Beirut. He urges the Lebanese to unite in the face of threats to their stability and security.
