ICC Investigation into Israeli "War Crimes" an Immoral Decision
(Jerusalem Post) Editorial - The International Criminal Court at The Hague made a terrible decision on Friday in announcing that it had legal justification to open a war crimes investigation against Israel. What makes the court's decision ridiculous is that it puts Israel on equal footing with terrorist groups like Hamas and Islamic Jihad. These groups intentionally target civilians with rockets, while Israel acts to defend itself. The restraint Israel has shown over the years in the face of these rocket attacks should be applauded, not undermined with an immoral war crimes charge. Moreover, building homes in Shiloh or Beit El - the cradle of the Jewish people - is not a war crime.
