Olmert: What Israel does in Gaza is “close to war crime”

Former Zionist Prime Minister Ehud Olmert strongly criticized Tel Aviv's current policies in the Gaza Strip and described it close to war crime, according to Mehr News Agency.

“What Israel is doing in Gaza is now close to war crime,” he said in an interview with the BBC. “This war has no purpose, no hope of achieving any achievement that can save the lives of the captives.”

“The bright scene of the war is the killing of thousands of innocent Palestinian civilians and a large number of Israeli military,” Olmert said. From every angle to this, we have an ugly and angry scene. “

In response, Zionist Immigration Minister Oir Sufi claimed that these remarks were due to aging and perhaps Olmert's dementia.
