Jump To Comment: 1 2A leading international rights group alleged that Israel committed war crimes during this summer’s Gaza war, saying it reached that conclusion after investigating three attacks on or near UN-run schools housing displaced Palestinians.
Human Rights Watch said it investigated the strikes at the schools in three separate locations in the war-battered Gaza Strip, attacks in which at least 45 people were killed.
According to its investigation, based on field research and interviews with witnesses, the New York-based group said no military targets were apparent in the area of the schools and some of the attacks were indiscriminate.
“The Israeli military carried out attacks on or near three well-marked schools where it knew hundreds of people were taking shelter, killing and wounding scores of civilians,” said Fred Abrahams, special adviser at Human Rights Watch. “Israel has offered no convincing explanation for these attacks on schools where people had gone for protection and the resulting carnage.”

In 2011 the SWP supported Nato "rebels" in Libya when they overthrew and lynched Col Gaddafy . In Syria they support the Nato "rebels" trying to overthrow President Assad . In Ukraine they supported the Nato-backed "rebels" of Maidan Square and regularly denounce "imperialist" Russia..
