Israel demolished a monastery and a nuns' school in the Lebanese village of Yaroun. Soldiers were filmed manually laying explosives inside religious buildings.
At least 9 religious sites gone across the border villages. Churches. Mosques. Roman-era shrines on UNESCO's protected list.
Israel's own defense minister called it the "Rafah model."
Nobody's hiding what this is. The question is why almost nobody's covering it.

Also:
2 IDF soldiers have been jailed for 30 days after one smashed a statue of Jesus Christ with a sledgehammer in southern Lebanon while the other filmed it.
Both removed from combat duty.
Swift punishment, but this is not an isolated incident. It follows the destruction of a Saint George statue in Yaroun during Palm Sunday, the demolition of a 1st century Christian shrine near Tyre, and IDF strikes on two churches in Gaza.
A pattern that raises serious questions about the IDF's attitude toward Christian symbols.
