Israel, Usa and Uk could be committing war crimes.
 
If Israel is actually committing war crimes in Lebanon by killing shit loads of civilians and attacking UN peacekeepers then so is the USA and the UK. By supplying the weapons to Israel, USA is breaking international law aswell, if Israel is committing war crimes that is. And the UK would be aswell because all the weapons are coming through UK airports before they go to Israel.

yeah well, it's not like we aren't already commiting war crimes in iraq

Of course we are, but the UN's intransigence in acting upon those crimes means that it can hardly attack Israel for much the same thing. By doing so, it would by extension be attacking the UK and US as criminals, who would be mighty peeved.

It's been allowed to go on for too long, really, and by it's eventual contrition and cooperation over UK and US policy, the UN has already implicated itself. So it would be screwed too. Not a bad thing, but it's not going to happen.

Most politicians amount to nothing more than a collective bucket of sick.

war crimes are just a bunch of bs.

Don't know how your media treats the info, but here in France, they just can't handle it and almost ignore it - not knowing how to dig, weigh & comment.
It's been 2 weeks now that Tsahal goes on killing 35-40 Lebanon civilians a day (10 times more than their own casualties), and what do we see on TV, at 8:00?
Something about temperature - something about Floyd Landis...
Lebanon is present in the news that's true, but in a shifting place, somewhere, never front line news. It may be talked about between Iraq and the weather or between our government doing good and football. They don't seem to know how important this is, and put it here and there, waiting for some clear statement from the world.
I can't understand it.
The more we were given was France repatriating lots of people from Lebanon, including foreigners (I mean non French - to say that France is a great nation, etc...).
