Israel-Gaza conflict: Apparent war crimes committed, says rights group
The BBC, otherwise known as the Beeb [bbc.com] reports this:
An investigation by the campaign group into what it says were three Israeli strikes that killed 62 civilians found no evidence of military targets nearby.
The Israeli military says it only struck military targets in Gaza.
The report also says the 4,300 rockets militants fired at Israel constituted indiscriminate attacks on civilians.
At least 260 people were killed in Gaza and 13 people were killed in Israel during the 11 days of fighting.
The UN said at least 129 of those killed in Gaza were civilians. The Israeli military said 200 were militants, while the militant group Hamas, which controls Gaza, acknowledged the deaths of 80 fighters.
260/13? Olympic level scoring? Almost as bad as the 400,000/149 of the First Gulf War. At least someone is keeping tabs.
