Israel Better-Prepared for Post-Gaza Legal Fight
(Jerusalem Post) Yonah Jeremy Bob - Any time Israel uses ground forces, the UN will greet it with a new Goldstone- like report and investigation, a former IDF top official said. Such UN investigations are unavoidable. Israeli officials say the state learned a lot from fighting the Goldstone report, has made huge improvements in its investigations, and will therefore leave the International Criminal Court no basis to intervene, since it only intervenes if a state does not self-investigate adequately. The IDF has unveiled a new fact-finding apparatus composed of teams with legal and expert military training, none of which were involved in the operations being investigated.
