UN TROOPS NOT NEUTRAL IN LEBANON

A norwegian journalist - Odd Karsten Tveit - reports that Norwegian UN Peacekeeping soldiers helped 2 Lebanese prisoners escape an Israeli controlled prison in 1992. The Norwegians thought the prisoners were in danger of being tortured or executed and transported the 2 men disguised in UN uniforms out of the prison in a Norwegian armored vehicle. Tveit claims it is fantastic that everyone could keep the operation secret so the continued presence of Norwegian soldiers would not be jeopardized. Well - isn't it nice to know that the Norwegian armed forces and the Norwegian press are not neutral?
