LONDON - Former Foreign Minister MK Tzipi Livni, currently in London*to attend the Haaretz Israel Conference, has been granted special diplomatic immunity following a bid by the British police to question her in connection with war crimes.
The unprecedented police summons, which was delivered last Thursday, was cancelled after diplomatic contacts between Israel and Britain, at the end of which Livni received immunity.
According to the summons, police wanted to question Livni, a Zionist Union Knesset member, on suspicion of involvement in war crimes during Operation Cast Lead in Gaza in 2008, when she was foreign minister, vice prime minister and a member of the diplomatic-security cabinet.

No invasion = no resistance to invasion.

no war started by arabs no invasion

but really this is a never ending disagreement. Palestine believes Israel has no right to exist and Israel believes the land is theirs. This is precisely what war is for. One more war between Palestine and Israel to settle everything

Your argument is trash- obviously- or you wouldn't be scampering for more punts. No invasion = no resistance to invasion. Now fuck off.

This is not a political issue. It is a matter of justice, of respect for victims’ rights, and of the straightforward impartial application of the rule of law. The British Government should not undermine the rule of law through political interference. What message does this send to the world?
The United Kingdom must not become a safe haven where suspected war criminals can escape justice by means of political interference in the legal system. The British people should not allow their legal system to be abused in this manner. As representatives of the victims, our request is simple: apply the law in an independent and impartial manner.

The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights represents victims of war crimes and other violations of international law. Among other victim’s families they act on behalf of Abed Rabbu Ashour Ahmed Al-Ghefari who is a Palestinian policeman. His brother Na’im Ashour Al-Ghefari died with more than 60 other civilian police officers and trainees when the police compound in Gaza City was bombed by Israeli war planes on 27 December 2008 while a graduation ceremony of police cadets was taking place.

If the UK's Tory party continues to squeal ' antisemitism ' every time somebody attempts to indict an Israeli alleged war-criminal how does the world react to other genuine charges brought by the West ?
