House Votes to Condemn Goldstone Report
Bill Declares Report 'Biased and Unworthy of Further Consideration'
In a 344-36 vote, the US House of Representatives voted to publicly condemn the United Nations Fact Finding Mission’s report on the Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip, otherwise known as the Goldstone Report, and called on President Obama to block it from further consideration in the United Nations.
Richard GoldstoneThe report chided both Hamas and the Israeli government for attacks on civilians during the war, but was condemned by many in Congress as being unfair to Israel and the bill labels it “biased and unworthy of further consideration.”
Congressmen in opposition cautioned that the resolution damaged America’s credibility and could seriously harm the US role in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.

Honor among war criminals
What moral standing does the US have to criticize anybody? The US still has to answer for torture, invasion, DU radiation poisoning, illegal use of white phosphorous, election tampering, and secret renditions.
We just gave them the green light
* to go ahead and do it again and giving the US the same pass because we have, we are and we will continue to do it also! Murdering millions, MILLIONS of innocent people!! Sickening!
