“They were war crimes”: The specific, legal case for international charges against Israel
Israeli officials have prided the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) on abiding by principles of international law at war, or international humanitarian law (IHL) as it is commonly referred to. In fact, the Israeli ambassador to the U.S., Ron Dermer, declared that the IDF deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for its “unimaginable restraint.”
The civilian death toll for the past three weeks alone in the Gaza Strip has risen over 1,500, hundreds of which are children. This is a clear indication that the Israeli forces are not exercising restraint, but rather, are committing war crimes.
Article 51 of the UN Charter states clearly: “Nothing shall impair the inherent right of individual or collective self-defence if an armed attack occurs against a Member of the United Nations.” Tuesday, August 5, 2014
