(Ynet News) Yoav Zitun - Former Military Advocate General Avichai Mandelblit said Turkey's trial of four former senior IDF officers in absentia for their part in the raid on the Mavi Marmara in 2010 "is more politics than law. It's a show, a fixed game with pre-decided outcomes....What is special is that Turkey, which is considered to have a serious judicial system, has bent the law and Turkish criminal procedure with these charges and this type of trial." Currently a senior analyst at the Institute for National Security Studies, Mandelblit said the trial poses "an innovation in modern warfare: using the court for political ends. That's what the Goldstone Commission tried to do - to turn the IDF's operational achievement [in the 2009 Gaza war] into a defeat." "Here we have cameras inside the courtroom, hundreds of witnesses as if it's the Eichmann trial, and one goal: Defaming the State of Israel." 2012-11-07 00:00:00Full Article
