Washington - South African jurist Richard Goldstone said Tuesday that he did not plan to seek nullification of his highly critical U.N. report on Israel's 2008-2009 offensive in the Gaza Strip and asserted that claims to the contrary by Israeli Interior Minister Eli Yishai were false. (Snip) In an interview with The Associated Press, Goldstone said that Yishai had called him on Monday to thank him for an op-ed piece published Friday in The Washington Post in which the judge wrote that new information had come to light that made him rethink his central conclusions. Goldstone said, however, that he

Nevertheless, Goldstone said, he did not intend to seek the report’s nullification.

I get it. Yes the report totally misrepresents the facts on the ground and draws conclusions that are unsupportable. Some would correctly characterize the report as biased to such extent that nothing in it can be trusted. But since it is now HISTORY and favorable history to boot, there is absolutely no reason to change it in any way or, God forbid, withdraw it.

Yeee gads, the propaganda lies get thicker and thicker. so sick of it. This Goldstone putz COULD have done more but he only wanted to go back to Israel for awhile, then wait, I have a feeling he’ll write more reports in the future worse than the one previously reported that everyone currently takes as fact except most all of the rest of us who don’t...heh, putz!
