That the judge was biased and prejudiced against them and their country. Probably they would have preferred an independent Serbian investigation too, but no one in the whole world discussed Goldstone's final veredict about these two war criminals and now they sit in jail. If justice is universal and we all accept it as that, justice must be applied to Israel crimes too, even if this Justice is called Goldstone.

OPEN LETTER TO THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT

Did you order the killing of the 900 civilians, in Gaza, in January, in self-defense or did you kill them to save others?

Did you kill these non-combatants in order to terrorize the civilian population?

Were you aware that to kill civilians, except in self-defense, is a war crime?

Did your troops use banned white phosphorus as a chemical weapon to injure and kill?

If your soldiers are alleged by an independent enquiry to be guilty of war crimes,will they be handed over voluntarily to the ICC for trial?

In which event, will Ehud Barak and Ehud Olmert, the ministers directly responsible, be voluntarily be handed over to the authorities in The Hague, or will it be left to other governments to arrest them ?
