U.N. report on Gaza war crimes draws harsh reaction

A United Nations investigation found that both Israel and Hamas committed war crimes during last winters war in Gaza. The report, while accusing both Israel and Hamas, singled out Israel for particularly harsh criticism. On Wednesday, reaction to that report has been swift and strong.
U.N. investigators are now calling upon Israel and Hamas to conduct their own independent inquiries into the allegations. If not, the team is recommending the case be sent to an international war crimes tribunal. Israel has rejected that call, blasting the report as being conceived in sin. The Israeli government refused to cooperate with the investigation, saying the outcome was prejudged.
Much of the Arab press focused on the allegations against Israel, while downplaying the actions of Hamas. In Israel, the report was almost universally condemned.

Yossi Peled, a minister in the current Israeli government and a former general in the Israeli Army, joins Daljit Dhaliwal to discuss the Israeli governments position on the U.N. report and the chances of Israeli military action against Iran.

"harsh reaction", lol.

a UN report is the same as a US report, the same as Reuters or AP report. It really doesn't matter who says it, it all stems from the same source, the same agenda.

US can't help but fund both sides.

Seems like a false flag is overdue?

Only the shadow knows...
