Spain carries on with judicial bias against Israel
Spain is trying to use its judicial system to harm Israel for acting in self-defense:
The Foreign Ministry stated Monday that a Spanish judge's decision to launch an investigation against six prominent Israeli military officials was unfortunate.And don't expect the Spanish government with someone as awful as Zapatero to put a stop to it. It's disgusting already that phony rights groups like what they mention are allowed to get away with this, but that's reality for you.
The officials are under suspicion of "war crimes" in relation to a July 2002 bombing that killed senior Hamas operative Salah Shehade and 14 Gazan civilians.
"We have no doubt that this decision is just another cynical move aimed at taking advantage of the Spanish judicial system against Israel, and it will be revoked after the appeal as requested," the ministry's statement said.
The Justice Ministry issued a statement to the same effect, and said the Israeli side was awaiting the Spanish prosecution's move in order to file an appeal.
"The claim filed in Spain by the Palestinian Center for Human Rights is a cynical attempt… at promoting a political move against Israel," said the ministry's spokesman, Moshe Cohen.
