MHz: No, you become patriots or rebels. Terrorists are the ones who go out of their way to kill non combatants.
I think if you check the actual charges they can be laid for using combat weapons that are excessive for the intended result. ie flattening a whole block where there is known to be more people than just the intended target.
In Afghanistan instead of bombing the whole wedding part you should be able to pick them off individually coming or going rather than having to take out civilians out just because they are there. That means the civilian deaths are intentional.
Yes, the momentum has swung behind the peace movement now. Thanks to Goldstone, AI and other NGO's, the peace movement has irrefutable proof that some Israelis have commited war crimes and crimes against humanity. We have pictures, satellite images, personal testimony by objective third parties... Now its up to us to make sure that people are aware of this information.
Hopefully the Judges have a lot more information than 'we. can supply. That is wher the changes are going to be made, if there are going to be any. If none are coming that pretty much means the ones being abused can use any method they want since Law has been shown to mean nothing.
That report takes care of abuses there, what other investigations are taking place around the world. For instance why is the US not named as a co-defendant, they have blatantly said they don't care how Israel used the weapons they give them (for free). The really sad part is when they give the munitions number more coverage (media) than the details of who it killed. The deaths are lumped together to minimize that aspect.
I deal with it more like it is an issue that comes up over coffee 'with somebody'. I would happily subscribe to UNTV if I was given the choice of what camera angles I could watch at the Court-house for the upcoming trials (of not just Israel) (zoom in on Tzipi's face during the reading of the charges and count how many time she swallows, lol)
