The rights group, Human Rights Watch, called upon the UN Security Council to adopt the Goldstone Report, which accuses Israel of committing war crimes during its Gaza campaign, Operation Cast Lead.
We, civil society organizations and activists working in the Middle East and North Africa, believe this is an opportunity for the UN General Assembly and the Security Council to send a clear message to Israeli and Palestinian leaders that civilians, regardless of their nationality, religious or ethnic background, are not legitimate targets of attack,” the groups’ statement said.
