I-13 UN - Double Standards - Double Crossed

UN warcrimes prosecutor attacks international double standards
THE HAGUE (AFP) - Chief UN warcrimes prosecutor Carla del Ponte hit out at international double standards, saying some serious crimes such as during the Israel - Lebanon were just simply being ignored......

"We are faced with conflicts where, according to credible reports, serious violations of international humanitarian law were committed, for instance during the recent Israel-Lebanon conflict, but no independent criminal investigation is taking place," she told a seminar of international prosecutors here.

"As lawyers, we have an obligation to ensure that the same rules apply everywhere. However, double standards exist today in the treatment of similar crimes," she argued at the two-day meeting in
The Hague.

So.... again we hear more of the truth.... BUT... unless there is action taken against those that it holds responsible, it is nothing more than political rhetoric... When is the UN going to take off its collar?
