Army probe in Gaza will be ineffective: Israeli NGO

[rss]

Jerusalem, Sep 11 (IANS/EFE) Israeli human rights organisation Btselem Thursday criticised the criminal investigation initiated by the Israeli Army in Gaza, claiming it would **t be effective in finding fault with senior commanders. In a statement sent to EFE, the **n-governmental organisation said "the hopes are minimal" because the same legal advisers who helped soldiers during the 50-day Israeli offensive in Gaza that ended last month themselves would **w investigate these cases. Btselem decided this week to suspend its cooperation with the Israeli Army after confirming that their research methods were cumbersome and their only goal was to avoid identifying those responsible. The process avoids investigating senior ******rs and does **t honestly study a wide range of policy issues related to the use of military force by Israel, said Hagai El-Ad, director of the NGO.
