Uri Avneri
Uri Avnery explains why Israel is unlikely to carry out a real – or even a sham – investigation into its conduct during the invasion of Gaza in 2008/09, as demanded by the UN-sponsored Goldstone report.

”The [Israeli] army commanders object to any investigation and any inquiry whatsoever. They probably know why. After all, they know the facts. They know that a dark shadow lies over the very decision to go to war, over the planning of the operation, over the instructions given to the troops, and over many dozens of large and small acts committed during the operation.”
