United Nations Declares Israeli Officials RESPONSIBLE For War Crimes In Gaza
A United Nations Commission of Inquiry has found that Israeli Officials ARE RESPONSIBLE for War Crimes in Gaza.
Speaking in Geneva, Navi Pillay, chair of the UN-backed Commission reported: “Israel forcibly transferred almost the entire population into a small area that is unsafe and uninhabitable.
“The deliberate use of heavy weapons with large destructive capacity in densely populated areas constitutes an intentional and direct attack on the civilian population.”
Pillay says the commission concluded that: specific forms of sexual abuse and violence constitute part of Israeli security forces operating procedures. The daily onslaught in Gaza has largely overshadowed a parallel wave of violence in the occupied West Bank. Since the Gaza war began in October more Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces or settlers there than in any recorded period. The violence, often ignored by Israeli forces, is due to both Israel’s increasingly militarized operations and a “surge in settler violence.”
