THE PHONEY WAR CRIMES ACCUSATION AGAINST ISRAEL

THE PHONEY WAR CRIMES ACCUSATION AGAINST ISRAEL by Allan Dershowitz

This is worth a read ...

"Israel is the only democracy in the world ever accused of war crimes when it fights a defensive war to protect its civilians. This is remarkable, especially in light of the fact that Israel has killed far fewer civilians than any other country in the world that has faced comparable threats. In the most recent war in Gaza fewer than a thousand civilians -- even by Hamas' skewed count -- have been killed. This, despite the fact that no one can now deny that Hamas had employed a deliberate policy of using children, schools, mosques, apartment buildings and other civilian areas as shields from behind which to launch its deadly anti-personnel rockets.

The Israeli Air Force has produced unchallengeable video evidence of this Hamas war crime. "

As I said above, it's definitely worth a read.
