Even the Security Council, in attempting to find a ceasefire between Israel and Hizbollah, warns that continued fighting could have "grave consequences". No place better illustrates the case than Qana, a coastal town east of Tyre, in southern Lebanon. The fact that the Security Council expressed "extreme shock and distress" at the bombing of Qana and offered its condolences for the deaths underscores how brutal the incident was.
