(Jewish Chronicle-UK) Jessica Elgot - Gulf War veteran Col. Tim Collins visited the town of Sderot in Israel and Gaza for BBC Newsnight and said he believes Hamas is committing war crimes. He was shown around Sderot bomb shelters and the police station, where he inspected a rocket from Gaza and pronounced it to be an indiscriminate weapon. While in Gaza, he inspected a mosque bombed by the Israelis. In its cellar, he found evidence of secondary explosions. He said: "It's my opinion that the only thing that could have caused these explosions is that explosives were stored in this cellar. It's the only legitimate explanation." Collins expressed his shock at posters with Hamas' badge on them, showing rockets heading towards Sderot. "This is a war crime by any standard," he said.
