Former Prime Minister of Israel: "Yes, we are committing war crimes."

[uncle bernard]

In an op-ed published in Haaretz, former Prime Minister of Israel states the obvious: Israel is committing war crimes in Gaza. The truth is obvious. You have no excuses anymore. If you can't acknowledge it now, you are walking in the footsteps of a 1930s German Nazi supporter.

While Olmert wrote that he had previously defended his country against “accusations of genocide and war crimes,” the Israeli politician said he can no longer see the widespread slaughter of civilians, including women, children and the elderly, or the campaign to starve Gaza as mere collateral damage in “a brutal war.”

“What we are doing in Gaza is a war of extermination: indiscriminate, unrestrained, brutal, and criminal killing of civilians,” he said.

“We are doing this not because of an accidental loss of control in a particular sector, not because of a disproportionate outburst of fighters in some unit — but as a result of a policy dictated by the government, knowingly, intentionally, viciously, maliciously, recklessly,” Olmert’s op-ed continued. “Yes, we are committing war crimes.”
