One man's crime is another man's justice.
This is why we need third parties with authority, and these being multilateral. Those responsible for desecrating the most fundamental human rights and decency need to be brought to justice.
That nothing gets done in this case is indeed disturbing.
The innocent will continue to suffer--and humanity will in some instances be expendable--when no one does anything.
There is the fear that prosecuting Israel or Israelis will be deemed antisemitism. However, prosecution is not the same as persecution.
Either way, the same difficulties aren't found when it comes to Palestinians. There's no such thing as "Palestine."
