       Charges filed by international attorneys against 15 Israeli  officials

       23.01.09

       Bethlehem / PNN - Palestinian and international efforts  continue to institute legal proceedings for the prosecution of Israeli officials in the commission of war crimes.

 

Although Israeli forces are involved in thousands of cases,  local experts such as the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights believe that the recent major attacks on the Gaza Strip will successfully  prosecuted.

       "They were well-documented, televised and the world was paying  attention," a member of the Gaza City team commented.

       After the very public detection of large-scale atrocities  which included the use of white phosphorus bombs in enclosed civilian  areas and the liquidation of children there is little defense.

       Fifteen specific names are now pending for prosecution in The  Hague´s war crimes tribunal.

       Those listed for prosecution include Israeli political and  military officials, namely Ehud Olmert, Tzipi Livni and Ehud Barak.

       Israelis are being warned internally against leaving its  boundaries due to fears of arrest.

       French lawyer Gilles Dovers is handling the complaint in Paris  calling for the "open investigation into war crimes" committed by  Israeli forces during three weeks in Gaza.

       Dovers said today that 500 complaints are being submitted by  Arab, European and Latin American officials. Bolivia is preparing its  own case, as is Venezuela.

       Argentine international prosecutor, Luis Moreno-Ocampo, is  deciding whether to go ahead with an investigation.

       The French lawyer said there is some fear of interference from  the United Nations Security Council under pressure from the United  States to stop the proceedings and prevent the achievement of access  to trial. The founding texts of the International Criminal Court  empower the Security Council to suspend its work.

       Today´s invitation to try at least 15 Israeli officials is  being delivered by 30 international lawyers of several nationalities.

       In parallel, the intention of a group of French lawyers to  file a complaint on behalf of French citizens of Palestinian origin  to the French courts against Israeli officials is gaining attention  in the cities of Paris and eastern France.

       Coordination with other lawyers in Belgium and Spain is  underway as similar complaints against the Israeli officials are  being made in Brussels and Madrid. Belgium is among the countries who  issued charges against Ariel Sharon in the past.

       Moroccan lawyers also disclosed yesterday practical steps  toward filing a lawsuit against "the perpetrators of war crimes" in  Gaza. Six lawyers are working with the Minister of Justice of Morocco.

       As reported by PNN throughout the week, in Tel Aviv Israeli  activists published 15 names:

       Ehud Barak, Amir Peretz, Binyamin Ben Eliezer, Avi Dichter,  Carmi Gilon, Dan Halutz, Doron Almog,

Ehud Olmert, Eliezer Shkedy,  Gabi Ashkenazi, Giora Eiland, Matan Vilani, Moshe Bogi Yaalon, Shaul Mofaz and Tzipi Livni, along with reasons they are listed and photos on: http://www.wanted.org.il/

Included with the note: “Anyone who has information about the suspect when he is outside of the Israeli borders, report immediately to…” and gives contact information for The Hague.
