UN Denounces Israeli Cluster Bomb Use in Lebanon

How does Israel accuse Hezbollah of being terrorist while engaging in terrorism themselves?:
"Israel dropped at least 350,000 cluster bomblets on south Lebanon in its war with Hizbollah guerrillas, mostly when the conflict was all but over, leaving a deadly legacy for civilians, a U.N. official said on Tuesday."

No justification:
"Shearer said Israel had not explained why it fired so many cluster bombs across the south as the war drew to a close. Nor had it responded to a U.N. request for the map coordinates of the cluster bomb strikes to hasten clearance efforts."
