Investigation Into Israeli Abuses

The United Nations Human RightsCouncil will be conducting an investogation into alleged abuses by Israel, according to the BBC. It was approved by 27 votes to 11. Many western nations called it biased, saying that Hezballah should be investiogated as well.

Although both sides have done awful things, Israel has more advanced technology, giving it both the capability to kill more civilians and the capability to kill very few civilians. It has chose the first. More than 1,000 Lebanese civilians have been killed by Israeli attacks, many of them children. Most of the 123 Israelis killed have been soldiers.

Although both have done massive wrong, Israel is clearly better and more equipped to do wrong, and has used that ability.
