"I Am Ashamed of Those Who Seek Out War Crimes of Israel"
(On the Left Side-Hebrew-24July2014-IMRA) Shlomo Gazit - At some point we simply did not have a choice, and we rightly gave the IDF command to enter [Gaza]. Once the war began - I became a different person. My people and my country are at war. All claims and criticisms I set aside until after the war. Today I stand absolutely in support of our fighting forces. I am ashamed of those who seek out war crimes of Israel in these circumstances. We are fighting an enemy attacking us with countless mortars and rockets, all of which - without exception - are aimed to kill us, the citizens of Israel. Their weapons are aimed at our towns and cities. No one is trying to convince me that these missile launchers in Gaza are trying not to commit war crimes. Gen. (ret.) Shlomo Gazit is a former head of Military Intelligence.
