Israel to PA: Drop Demand for International Investigation of Gaza "War Crimes"


[Ynet News] Daniel Edelson - Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman on Thursday addressed the Palestinian Authority's demand of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague to investigate possible war crimes committed by Israel in Gaza.

You can't accept our help on one hand and ask the ICC to charge us with crimes against humanity on the other....(Such actions) go against all of the treaties we have signed, in letter and in spirit, and there is no way we will agree to it. We are not looking for confrontations. We support negotiations and we are trying to come up with a solution for coexistence, but we are done groveling."
