So “mental scarring” is a war crime now? That’s what I got from this.

Maybe Israel should just shoot UN Investigators then.

Can someone link me to the report of the U.N. calling for war crimes trials for those who shot over 100 missiles per day into Israel each day for a solid year before Israel took action?

My problem is that the U.N. only investigates Israeli war crimes. It couldn’t care less about Arab war crimes.

Israel should boot all U.N. personnel from the West Bank and Gaza. They are members of a front organization for the terrorists.

... dismissed Israel's argument that the assault was for self-defence in the light of rocket attacks aimed at Israel from the Hamas-ruled Gaza strip. ...

He might have gotten one thing correct in all his ranting: it was more about garnering votes than really setting the Arab nomads back.

Israel could just sit there with big targets and let every missile hit perfectly, saying thank you terrorists may I have another, and the UN would find fault in Israel for not putting the rockets back together so the terrorists can launch them again.

“The mental anguish of the civilians who suffered the assault is so great...”

Just incredible.

I’ll be more interested in what our new administration does to all this propaganda.

There is no thing as a "war crime" against a Jew. He deserves to be slaughtered, you understand. The UN has never condemned the murder of a single Jew. That says it all.

Israel’s enemies sit at the UN roundtable. It’s time we kicked this dump out of the US. Hey, maybe we can put the Gitmo people there? Any difference?

did he write his proclamation on the first day of the war? or before? Probably just printed it out from a form letter and added a date and a signature.

The UN was aiding and abetting the Palestinians. So lets not consider them impartial.

Richard Falk said Israel should have negotiated with Hamas. What about? Her destruction?

The man is a complete fool - an anti-Semite of the first order and a Charter Member of the Jews For A Second Holocaust.

Having read the whole thing … you are right … metal scarring is the only complaint. guaranteed to be a future UN war crime.

So far the only War CRIME I see is
#1 ...Israel allowing the UN into Gaza

#2 ..Israel allowing the UN into ISRAEL
#3 .. Israel allowing UN to leave Gaza in any form other than a CASKET.

Do I sound a Little Sour against the UN ... NAH, Not me!! No Never!!
