Will it ever end. The blatant hypocrisy? (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/asia/article6337805.ece) Notwithstanding the terrible tragedy in Sri Lanka, the recent Israeli assault on Gaza, with all the evidence and allegations (from both sides) was not, and is not, a worthy issue to investigate? The mind boggles.
Now just maybe the high resolution satellite imagery didn't show war crimes in the latest Gaza incursion, and your own source show that this in in cooperation with the U.N.
Moon dropped the Gaza war crimes investigation under US and Israeli pressure. The UN is BLATANTLY hypocritical.
And the US government has refused to agree to having its officials ever be brought before international tribunals even though it supports other leaders being brought in front of international tribunals. The reason for this must also be, I guess, that this is because US officials have not nor ever will commit crimes that might bring them in front of tribunals.
You think you are telling me anything new? Just look at the anti Jewish agenda that has been allowed to be fomented in it's chambers.

Where do I look? What action has been taken to investigate alleged war crimes in Gaza? They are falling over themselves investigating Sri Lanka, and they fell over themselves investigating Yugoslavia. Pretty picky eh?
The difference is that in Sri Lanka, civilians were specifically targeted and shot, lined up and shot. Like a massacre. In Gaza civilians were shot because they let Hamas fire mortars and rockets from their properties and that makes them combatants, and killing them is totally acceptable under international law.
Unbelievable. Was there any waterboarding? White phosphorus? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
only after the jews declared their independence and created a state that denied self determination to 70% of the regions population. Which is an act of aggression. Despite what you think the arabs declaration of war against Israel could be argued to be their duty due to their signing the UN charter. Just because you want Israel's creation to be legal doesn't make it so.
When people have grand design, this is delusion. That one people have a place and others do not have it. Land is not possession, and cannot be owned. Land can be underwater, and we still say "is our underwater land, which we own by right". This is completely crazy, and delusion of imperative. No imperative, but land and food and shelter, even for people who live on this land in one thousand, two thousand years, when owners will be forgotten in the dust of history. Only the world will survive all imperations we selfishly apply, to land and water which is always there, has always existed, before money, before "purchase". Who is purchasing what? The people buy what they think is "their land", but this is big illusion.
Desperate now aren't you, declaring a State is now agression? Really, and I have a Bidge in Brooklyn that I can sell you cheep. Now show us where in the U.N. Treaty and Charter, That the Arabs signed to become members of the U.N., that such any such right exist. The agression was on the part of the Arabs. Just because you want the State of Israel to not be legal doesn't make it so.
