Israel's report on Gaza...

They are pursuing 13 criminal investigations.....this is what you expect of a moral country - on the other hand, Hamas investigates only when Israeli civilians are NOT killed...
Israel's offensive against Hamas in Gaza at the beginning of the year was a "proportional response" to attacks by the Islamist group, the Foreign Ministry said in a defense brief on Operation Cast Lead released Thursday.

"Israel's resort to force in the Gaza Operation was both a necessary and a proportionate response to Hamas' attacks," the ministry said Thursday in a statement on the brief, which was published ahead of two harsh United Nations reports on the conflict expected to be released soon.

"While the Israel Defense Forces continues to investigate specific incidents during the Operation, the Paper demonstrates that Israeli commanders and soldiers were guided by International Humanitarian Law, including the principles of distinction and proportionality."

The ministry said the brief, titled "The Operation in Gaza - Legal and Factual Aspects," also details the context of the campaign.

According to the statement, the brief gives previously unpublished details of multiple Israel Defense Forces investigations into allegations made by various groups of violations of the law during Operation Cast Lead, the code-name for the 3-week offensive.

The paper reveals that IDF investigative teams are currently examining approximately 100 complaints, including 13 criminal investigations opened so far.
