Say What?

The Jerusalem Post today ran a story about why human rights groups don't investigate Hamas war crimes.

It makes it quite easy regarding Hamas. It is quite clear that they are attacking and targeting civilians. When someone straps a bomb on themselves or fire missiles at civilians, the details are less important. It is clearly a war crime without even looking at the details," [Sarit Micha'eli] said. "Even if they fired a Kassam missile as a military target, the fact that it is an inaccurate weapon, it would still count as an indiscriminate attack."

Now I have it. Since Hamas blatantly ignores international law and openly targets civilians, there's no need to investigate. Whereas the Israelis, whose policy is to do their best to avoid hitting civilians, need to be investigated.

Following this logic, the Israelis should take off the gloves and announce that Gaza is a free-fire zone and indiscriminately start bombing and shelling the place. That way they could avoid all these investigations.

I have to wonder, though, if Hamas's war crimes are so obvious, how come the international community isn't calling for trials for its leadership, whereas they are calling for trials of Israelis?

If these idiotarians had been around in 1945, and Adolf Hitler and Franklin Roosevelt had somehow survived the war, I suppose we would have seen FDR on trial while Hitler wandered Germany as a free man.
