The @IDF is proven right again. And again. And again.

The IDF must be the only entity in the world that readily admits mistakes, and whose statements are almost always found to be accurate, and yet is also routinely accused of lying. 

It took responsibility for the deaths of the World Central Kitchen aid workers. And for the killing of three hostages. It said that it did some limited fire towards Gazans approaching its position during a riot and stampede to get food from aid trucks, but it did not fire into the crowd. 

If the IDF routinely lies to the world, why would it ever admit any of these things? 

Instead of these admissions being used as proof that the IDF is telling the truth when it denies responsibility for other incidents, Israel haters use them as proof of IDF evil. And when the IDF says it was not responsible for, say, the Al Ahli hospital bombing, the haters claim that it is a lie, even after independent researchers confirm Israel is telling the truth.

A small incident this week proves yet again that the IDF reports things accurately. 

When four UNIFIL peacekeepers were injured in a blast in Rmeish in southern Lebanon, the IDF denied any airstrike in the area. Yet the Lebanese Foreign Ministry blamed Israel, saying that the attack violates international law and international humanitarian law, and Israel targeted peace protectors who are United Nations employees. 

Now investigations prove Israel was telling the truth, again.

The Lebanese Army’s investigations determined that the blast that hit a U.N. military observers patrol in Rmeish on Saturday was caused by an explosive device planted underground, al-Akhbar newspaper reported on Wednesday.

Israel's military meanwhile said Wednesday it had obtained information that indicated a Hezbollah explosive charge caused the blast.

"According to information available to the (army), the explosion that occurred on March 30... was caused after a UNIFIL patrol drove over a charge that had been previously placed by Hezbollah in the area," it said.

An ongoing investigation by the Lebanese Army has meanwhile found that the three U.N. military observers and the Lebanese interpreter were wounded by a "landmine," a Lebanese judicial official said Wednesday.

"Preliminary results of a Lebanese Army investigation have found that the observers were wounded by a landmine," the official told AFP, adding that the probe was continuing and the source of the mine had yet to be determined.

The media knows that the IDF track record on these kinds of events is far better than those of any of its enemies. It takes hours or days to determine the circumstances of specific incidents in war, and the IDF isn't perfect in this regard, but it is quite close. 

Which is why the constant media refrain that it cannot confirm IDF claims while accepting those of the people who want to see every Jew in the region ethnically cleansed or dead is a reflection not of the media's desire for accuracy but the built in bias that Jews cannot be trusted, no matter what they say.
