Accusations again. So no evidence.

If he is correct, that would be an argument for the defense. His opinion seems to be more political than legal.

He argues that the ICC is overreaching it's jurisdiction since Israel is not party to the ICC, he also argues that the court has discounted evidence ( which by its constitution it is required to consider) that Israel has already carried out, appropriate and adequate investigations, ant that it has reversed the principal of the burden of proof.

 

He also remarks on the itself remarkable fact that of the three judges who would try the case, one has been involved in constructing the prosecution!

 

You know those sound very much like legal, not political arguments to me!

So what do you do with accusations?

 

You gather evidence and if you think they meet the burden of proof, you do EXACTLY what the ICC did, you issue arrest warrants.

The whole point is that Professor Rose argued that the evidence comes nowhere near the burden of proof (hence inverting said requirement); a subsidiary point he makes is that the court has no authority to issue arrest warrants as Israel is not a party to It.

 

It is a bit like the Police taking you away in the belief that the initials "JB" stand for "Jolly Bad"!

Greg Rose cannot be considered unbiased, he is Jewish and probably holds an Israeli passport, the whole point of legal process with the ICC is to determine guilt or innocence.

 

It's wrong to consider one Jewish man in Australia crying wolf.

So nothing to offer in evidence, just deflection on my support for facts and more deflection on grammar and spelling while I was on my phone typing.

 

Its a recurring pattern now with you, get personal when you have nothing.

So is fiction for the gullible. Here's a few more sicko accusations for you that are baseless but I'm sure the Hamas supporters love em. From the Press of Gaza:

 

"Israeli forces are using new weapons that cause bodies to evaporate on the scene"

You can't even work out that the post in question is from a Gaza journalist. That is then spread by Hamas supporting press. Yes conspiracy theories indeed. Shows the desperation they go to spread their lies, but like the constant fact less accusations fella.......

I did note it was a Gaza journalist.

 

My constant accusations as you put it come from multiple eye witness accounts.

 

I am still not surprised you read and post conspiracy theories

Wake up and provide facts fella, something yet to be achieved by you. There can be plenty of eye witness accounts of anything but they need to be credible and provide the evidence to back it up. 

 

I provided a clear example earlier of eye witness accounts that are all obviously false.

I don't think it is, or you would have said where the origin of Hossam Shabat's report (he is a reporter, he never stated it was his opinion).  It's his job to report what he hears.

 

It came from Dr. Al Bursh. 

 

I can't help wondering how a Dr. can "see" to deal with a vapourised body in the hospital, I suspect there's a mistranslation somewhere here, however that is just my opinion.
