Subject: RE: BS: Israel Moves in.
Israel does not have to bring charges, anybody can.

The war crimes charges that can be laid at the door of Hamas are:

- Treatment of prisoners of war
- Deliberately endangering the civilian population by storing arms, munitions and explosives where civilians are used as human shields
- Mounting attacks from buldings containing civilians
- Deliberate indiscriminate targeting of civilian centres of population.

Very pleased to here the Israeli PM's warning of the intended use of "disproportionate" force in response to future rocket attacks from Gaza, I particularly liked the bit about "tit-for-tat" now being over - not before time.
