Israel's PM Benjamin Netanyahu has blasted at the UN Human Rights Council's decision to investigate war crimes committed by both Israelis and Palestinians during the Gaza conflict, accusing the organization of bias and legitimization of Hamas.
"UNHRC gives legitimacy to murderous terror organisations like Hamas and Daash (Islamic State)," Netanyahu said, lashing out at the UNHRC's unwillingness to investigate other "massacres" in the region.
"First let them carry out an investigation in Damascus, in Baghdad, in Tripoli, let them go and see Daash and the Syrian army and Hamas. It is there, not here, that they will find war crimes," Netanyahu said, quoted by AFP.

Netanyahu added that instead of investigating Hamas rocket attacks on Israel and their use of human shield tactics the UN chose to probe Israel – "the only democracy in the Middle East… that is acting legitimately to defend its citizens against murderous terror."
The UN body has issued a statement clarifying that it will investigate "all violations of international human rights and humanitarian law," Rolando Gomez told AFP. "This directly implies that both parties will be subjected to a thorough investigation."

It is not the first direct criticism the specially appointed UN panel has received from Israel, since Canadian law professor William Schabas, was tasked by the UNHR to head the probe.

On Tuesday Israel denounced Monday's Human Rights Council's decision to form an investigative committee based on the UN Security Council decision dated 23 July.

"The anti-Israel conclusions in the commission's report are pre-written and only lack the signatures," spokesperson for the Israeli foreign ministry, Yigal Palmor, said, Middle East Monitor reports. "This committee is not interested in human rights, but the rights of terrorist groups such as Hamas," he added, noting that Israel has yet to decide whether or not it will cooperate with the commission. The Israeli political establishment was also quick to highlight Schabas' harsh comments made in the past against Israel.

Following his appointment, Schabas gave a number of interviews defending his candidacy.

"I have solid opinions on Israel's actions and its leadership, the same as the rest of the citizens of Israel," Schabas told Yedioth Ahronoth. "It doesn't mean that this would impair my judgment."

At the same time he urged Israel to cooperate with the investigation, "because the allegations have a great deal to do with the use of force, the targeting, and the proportionality of that targeting, the identification of military objectives," Schabas said in an Interview to Israel's Channel 2.

The Rights Council commission is due to publish its findings in March 2015. Israel refused to cooperate with a previous UN inquiry following Operation Cast Lead in 2008-2009.

According to the latest figures from the Gaza Health Ministry, at least 1,939 Gazans have been killed and 10,000 have been wounded so far in Operation Protective Edge started on July 8. Despite the extension of a shaky truce between Hamas and Israel on Wednesday for another five days, the IDF carried out several
airstrikes on Gaza overnight in retaliation to three rockets launched at Israel.

Kijana katika biggest mistake unazofanya ni kushabikia au kuutreat 100% mgogoro wa Plaestine KIDINI as kwa kuwa imani ya kikiristo then you will support Israel unconditionally....

there are things needed to be unfolded to You:....

1.Gaza peke yake kuna wakristo 1000 wanaumia kama wapalestina wengine

ebu pitia hapa ujionee Palestinian Christian

2. Gaza kuna wapalestina wanaofuata "judaism" ni wafuasi wa kitabu cha thamudi japo ni minority

mashambulizi ya Israel hayawalengi akina Hamas au ukadhania waarabu ni waislamu peke yao kama wengi wanavyokaa kwenye social media na kujidanganya...ile ni vita dhidi ya Occupation ya Ardhi...

3. Support ya USA kule Israel sio issue ya kidini kama inavyoposhwa na media na watu wengine makusudi...kuna element za dini kwa kiwango kidogo sana ni ECONOMIC as well as POLITICAL INTERESTS...

naweza kukwambia kuwa Mashariki ya kati ni eneo lenye utajiri mkubwa sana wa mafuta na kuweza kulitawala njia bora zaidi ni kuhakikisha wako vitani nchi za kibepari kuchukua vyao mapema...wanaoumia ni kama Afrika tunavyoumia

nani hasiyejua kuwa ANGOLA, NAMIBIA, DRC, SIERRA LIONE migogoro mikubwa ya civil wars ni "Foreign conspiracy?

uko dunia ipi...ebu kaa chini soma siasa za dunia zinakwendaje

UONGO MKUBWA KABISA watu wanadanganywa makusudi kuwa palestina hawataki amani hii ni kweli? unakijua kilichomuua Yizhka Rabin? mwaka 1995 kule TEL AVIV aliyekuwa waziri mkuu wa Israel? kosa lake kubwa ni kushikana mikono na yaser Arafat kuashiria amani kutaka kuishi kwa kwa amani bila vita na majirani zao na mkataba wa kuuliwa kwake aliusaini mwaka 1993 Camp david kule ikulu ya marekani na mwaka 1994 wote wawili kupokea tuzo ya Nobel kule Oslo Norway....hili lilikuwa tusi kubwa kwa wayahudi na wakaanza kumutia Rabin kuwa ni Nazi (tusi zito kuitwa kwa myahudi) na kusema yeye na Arafat ni Blood brothers

mayahudi wakaona huyu ni msaliti kijana mmoja akiitwa YIGAR AMIR akamuua huko Tel aviv kwa ushawishi mkubwa sana wa viongozi wa mlengo wa kushoto wa Chama cha LIKUD kwenye bunge la israel (Knesset) na hadharani akiongoza Benjamin Netanyahu na sera zao za kizayuni...haya watu wanayajua? kama amani basi angeileta YIZHAK RABIN na YASER ARAFAT lakini waliovunja na kuvuruga ni akina Netanyahu...

pitia hii source :http://learning.blogs.nytimes.com/2...estinian-autonomy/?_php=true&_type=blogs&_r=0

kwa kifupi maeneo yoyote ambayo kuna rasilimali utakuta vita kali na mkono mrefu wa nchi za kibepari, hivi haujaletewa sera za ushoga ari mradi tu tuweze kupokea misaada na uwekezaji? kwa sababu tu tuna rasilimali?

hizi dini watu wanashangilia tu ila siasa imekaa nyuma yake kwa watu wanaolewa yanayoendelea hamna lolote nje ya Uchumi na ubepari baasi....mambo ya dini ni waafrica tu tumebakia kushabikia imefikia hatua mbaya watu wanashangilia mauaji na uvamizi wa america wakifikiri waarabu wote ni waislamu? ndio leo watu wanashangaa kumbe IRAQ kuna waarabu wakristo? kumbe wao lengomlgo lao ni mafuta kwa kisingizio cha silaha za maangamizi?

ni ushauri tu piga shule kidogo ya historia ya siasa hizi ushabiki wa mabepari hawa hata hapa Tanzania unatumaliza....

Yizhak Rabin na Yaser Arafat (katikati) ni Bill Clinton huko Camp David mwaka 1993 miaka miwili baada Rabin alipigwa risasi huko Tel Aviv

 

[Bukayo jr]

Mr gooner...watu wengi aidha wanajadili hii migogoro kwa kasumba na ushabiki au bila na kuwa na information za kutosha

ila piga ua Ubepari uko nyuma ya migogoro karibu asilimia 90% ya dunia hii...wakiongozwa na kiongozi wa mabepari ulimmwenguni...bepari mwingine nae Russia anavamia nchi za ulaya magharibi anajitanua tu...tunapotoshwa weeeh na vyombo vya habari vyao makusudi kwa malengo yao wenyewe sie tunadandia....

mabepari hawana huruma wala simile...wanafiki wakubwa

mkuu kashengo ni watu wachache sana wanaoelewa na kukubali uliyo huo ukweli ulio ubainisha.
Wengi wanafuata mkumbo wa udini tu.

Dhulma iliyo fanywa Gaza ni ya kutisha, ndiomana Israeli wanapinga uchunguzi Japokuwa Naamini hautakuwa na jipya lolote

dhulma haiko huko tu...we tizama nchi za kiafrika zenye rasilimali kama sudani kusini, DRC, Angola, Sierra Lione, Libya kote huko kuna vita isyoisha...ukikaa ukataka kufukua mambo ni MABEBERU yanaleta shida duniani..yaani ni sheedah

People think that "Arab" and "Jew" are races, these are not races, they are purely cultures and traditions!
Some think that all Jews of today come from Isaack and that all Arabs of today come from Ishmael!. This is not true!!

First you have to know that when Ishmael went to Arabia, there were already people living there, he learn't their language and he become among them. Therefore Arabs coming from the line of Ishmael are a part of Arabs since other Arabs comes from other different roots.

For the case of Jews, there has been conversions throughtout jewish history (not many though), the converted can not be claimed to be coming from Isaack.
Apart from that, there has been people living in those areas even before Moses and Joshua took the children of israel back to the holy land!. So for many years, through intermarriages, through people movements they have been settling and resettling on the lands, It is in my opinion wrong to look this issue in the Spectrum of Religion.

Why do I think so?
Because A CHILD OF ISRAEL (JACOB) WILL CONTINUE TO BE AN ISRAELITE EVEN IF HE CONVERTS TO CHRISTIANITY OR ISLAM OR REMAIN A JEW!! UNFORTUNATELY IN ISRAEL THEY CAN ACCEPT AN ATHEIST TO BE ONE OF THEIR OWN RATHER THAN ACCEPT AN ISRAELI WHO CONVERT TO ISLAM!!!
IF THE LAND IS TO BE INHERITTED BASED ON THE SEED OF ISRAEL, THEN ALL WHO COME OUT OF JACOB HAVE THE RIGHT TO LIVE IN THAT LAND!!

@gamba la nyoka thanks for good analysis.
Sadly none of this can help to change the ideology that has form roots for decades, neither making any reconciliation on the current confrontation.
Netanyahu has a ball and Israel citizens still trust him, meanwhile Hamas together with Palestine have decided to walk on a hard path.
Time will tell.

Netanyahu:
If Hamas thinks it will make up for its military losses with a political achievement, it is wrong. If Hamas thinks that by continuing the steady trickle of rocket fire it will force us to make concessions, it is wrong. As long as there is no quiet, Hamas will continue to suffer heavy blows. Hamas knows we have a lot of power but maybe it thinks we don't have enough determination and patience, and even there it is wrong, it is making a big mistake."
​

Hamas spokesman, Sami Abu Zuhri: We are committed to achieving the Palestinian demands and there is no way back from this. All these demands are basic human rights that do not need this battle or these negotiations.The ball is in the Israeli occupation's court."​

It is simple. Netanyahu can commit any massacles and at his own free will and he knows it that nothing will happen to him.
Israel is free to violate any UN resolutions and has done so and on modern times, they get veto cover.
He cares nothing because the US and allies will defend him at any cost.
UN is only for Saddam, Ghadafi and like.

This is the jungle world which will live in. Hope future will unlock true justice.

Unfortunately some people by either knowing or sympathizing: they choose to reside with evil doers or good doers. UN is aware of the complexity of the matter between Israel and Palestine-since 1947. Through learning from the Arabs past mistakes which left them empty of nothing and more death suffering. UN ensured Egypt a peace treaty with Jewish state. Both Arabs & Israel agreed on negotiation a proper way of addressing the matters. For a good reasons: The peace would be guaranteed.

Hamas a terrorist organization cunningly raised to the spotlight by united with Palestine government. This radical group managed to sit on the round table to discuss matters with Israel. There's a saying "you can teach a monkey to dress like human but you cannot change his Monkey hood. Now Hamas is reversing the situation to those days 1967:where the Arabs dreams turned into a nightmare.
Mrs Clinton and the rest of UN diplomats understand that Hamas has crossed the lines when attacking Israel. Don't forget Palestine & Hamas are closed allies. So it like saying Israel is fighting Palestine who thinks War will led them victorious. Israel is responding to UN treaty on a War against terror. As you've said this is jungle and UN is doing fair well: by saying a war is not a solution: which is translated in Hamas perspective as unfair.Hamas views A War is fair way to reach agreement.Hence the death of Palestine civilians is at the stake of Hamas decision and Palestine government which they bombed Israel and shielded themselves with Palestine civilians. Any retaliatory measure by Israel is for defending themselves against terrorists attacks.

You either know how to distort the truth just like the Izrael propoganda machine and you are doing fine. Please yourself. This kind of language will one day reach a cross road some point. Biggest terrorist is Israel.
