Israel: UN Report on Gaza War Is Biased
(USA Today) Oren Dorell - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday rejected a UN report that accused both Israel and Hamas of war crimes in the Gaza fighting last summer. "Israel does not commit war crimes," Netanyahu said. "Israel defends itself against a terrorist organization that calls for its destruction and carries out many war crimes." He added that the commission that issued the report is "notoriously biased" against Israel. Ron Prosor, Israel's ambassador to the UN, accused the investigators of serving "as the soldiers of the Palestinians and Hamas." "The UN has been taken hostage by terrorist organizations, and in this battle, the international community will lose."
