Human Rights Watch Report Actually Accuses Hamas Of War Crimes

The AP reports that the usually anti-Israel Human Rights Watch has written a 31-page report focusing "on Hamas' actions in connection with Israel's three-week offensive in Gaza that ended in late January. Human Rights Watch, as well as other groups, have previously accused Israel of committing war crimes during the offensive aimed at stopping Palestinian rocket fire. 'Hamas rocket attacks targeting Israeli civilians are unlawful and unjustifiable, and amount to war crimes,' said Iain Levine of Human Rights Watch. But the report stopped short of accusing Hamas militants of war crimes, with officials saying only a court could make that determination... Hamas militants fired hundreds of rockets at southern Israeli towns, forcing thousands of civilians to hide in shelters or to flee. Many of those rockets were filmed by Israeli army drones and seen by foreign observers being launched from crowded Palestinian neighborhoods."
