of course not. "human rights" only apply to some, not all.

Gaza is lacking any independent sovereignty and the use of military force is, in that case permissible. Israel imposition of economic sanctions on the Gaza Strip is a perfectly legal means of responding to terrorist attacks as Israel has no legal obligation to engage in trade with Gaza as explained at : http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2008/01/international-law-and-gaza-assault-on_31.html

Are the Gazans “innocent civilian victims” ? A recent rally proves that Gazans stand with Hamas, terrorism. “Jews! We have already dug your graves,” declared Hamas official Mushir al-Masri at a half-million strong rally of support for Hamas in Gaza’s central square. The Hamas official was joined by the terrorist group’s top brass, some via teleconference, at a massive show of support for the Islamist movement that unequivocally broadcast a message of support for terrorism and the ongoing war with the Jewish state among Gaza’s Arabs. “ Estimates ranged from 250,000 to 500,000. The Gulf Times reported “at least 500,000” while others reported “from 300,000-500,000.” The New York Times, Associated Press and AFP agreed that the rally was much larger than a Fatah rally held earlier this month, which was reportedly attended by 250,000 as described at : http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2007/12/gazans-stand-with-hamas-terrorism.html

I assume they regards sucide bombing and Quasam rockets of the pals. as contribution to humanity

They rather see death jews than fighting jews they rather see poor jews than rich jews they rather see stupid jews than smart jews etc. BUT even if we are death poor or stupid they will always find away to hate us... Don't be misled, the educational system in the western world is paid by the arabs...

"Arab and European intellectuals" - Now thats funny! I suspect this kind of behavior is the reason why the US will not allow our troops to be subject to international courts.

These nut jobs will open their proceedings with a "Seig Heil"? What we are witnessing is collusion between the neo-nazis of the far-left with the confirmed nazis of the Arab world.

"Furthermore, actions that take place in SDEROT every day, including the targeting of civilians and denying them proper medical care, are war crimes and should be addressed by international law."

This is a joke--right.? Apparently not. This is another one of those blame the victim and praise the aggressor. It worked in Kosovo and now they are trying this on Israel. Europeans will be sorry when women are forced into Burkas and Sharia law replaces democracy.

It is time the Europeans stop being a stooge of Islamist-Jihadists. It is not surprising if the stooges are Antisemite Papists that are crusading this crap against Israel with their allies-Islamist-JIhadists. In WWII they were in cahoots in effecting the Holocaust on the Jews. What Israel should do is treat these entities as enemies and hunt them as they did the terrorists in the 1970s.

israel should realize that to penalize poor ole innocent terrorists just for merely shooting qassams at dirty zionist pigs is plain wrong. golly every one knows that jews are not allowed self defense, its just not part of human rights. only sworn enemies of filthy jews pigs can kill innocent men, women and children while being respected by the war crimes judges.

see how general patton fought the germans and his philoshopy at http://www.jewishmag.com/121mag/patton-harry-fisher/patton-harry-fisher.htm then perhaps europe that was under nazi threat of destruction can understand what israel is suffering.

This is absolutely and utterly outrageous...Europe is giving artifcial oxygen to Terrorism in Israel Sponsored by Hamas and supported by the people in Gaza, let Palestinians who feel scared and threatend to be caught in the crossfire move to the West Bank where it is relatively safer, why doesnt Belgium donate a few busses to Abbas so he can start shipping the anti-hamas in gaza to the west bank , instead of going forward with this foolish idea called human rights court which will end up serving Hamas's interests and would lead to the escallation of terrorism and qassam rockets on Sderot after being backed up by Belgium, Eu, and the UN???

Please; Your Highness, request you to come over and live in Sderot for one week, before you pass any verdict.

I assume these new monkey courts to be equate Israel's defence of their young and old citizens to crimes against humanity whereas Hamas's lawlessness, real crimes, rapes, murder, summary executions, lack of any political freedom, innumerable Kassam rockets launched indiscriminately against Iraeli citizens with a view to kill and maim are all contribution to humanity. So much for some European so-called courts ! Let's hope they won't redefine the term HUMANITY.

Disgusting!

What about Hamas for rocketing innocent civilians living in Sderot,why are they not going on trial? Why not all the terror groups that have killed innocent Israeli men, women & children over the years, in the bus bombings and other bombings? why not Hezbollah for 1st kidnapping the Israeli soldiers, then rocketing Israeli cities Killing civillians? Why is the world so ready to forgive the Muslim arab terrorists for their deeds that force Israel to respond with military actions?

If rockets start falling where these human right organisations live.They would defend themself and try to take the terrorists also like Israel do. Iis so easy to tell what others should do,

only israel isto be tryed what about chisbula in lebanon the chamas in gaza this is only because we dont have somone makingprpaganda for us and explain our position. what we have is a bunch of guys interested to be in other countrys and make a good life and be on the payroll of the goverment

Do not see any difference.

For goodness sake cut trade with the EU.

Israel is expected to take all and every aggression lying on its back. This is taken as a given in this mad world.

Read this article on Israel's actions in the Gaza strip: http://www.jcpa.org/JCPA/Templates/ShowPage.asp?DRIT=1&DBID=1&LNGID=1&TMID=111&FID=378&PID=0&IID=2021&TTL=International_Law_and_Gaza:_The_Assault_on_Israel’s_Right_to_Self-Defense Israel operates within international law and tries as much as possible to mitigate damage to innocent civilians, while the terrorist groups view dozens of dead civilians as a victory.

ARE BEING SLAUGHTERED BY ARAB MUSLIMS IN DARFUR....

WHEN THEY ARE SHOOTING ROCKETS ? WHY WOULD THEY SEEK MEDICAL CARE IN A PLACE THEY SEEK TO WIPE OUT?

It will be even more of a political charade than the ICJ's legally unsound verdict as to the status of Judea, Samaria and Jerusalem. Unfortunately, this initiative finds an audience through the left-leaning media who will choose to take it at face value because it plays to their prejudices. The situation requires a more carefully planned and sustained PR campaign of explanation than your government has shown itself capable of. Each of the messages in 1, 2 and 3, and their cost and potential cost in human terms, need to be communicated.

someone accused of "war crimes" should stand trial in order to end this show. I´m sure nothing would come out of this farce !!!
