Handling Criticism

At a Jerusalem press conference later today, Human Rights Watch will release a report criticizing the IDF’s attack on Lebanon as “indiscriminate. According to AP:

In a statement issued before the report’s release, the human rights organization said there was no basis to the Israeli claim that civilian casualties resulted from Hizbullah guerrillas using civilians as shields. Israel has said that it attacked civilian areas because Hizbullah set up rocket launchers in villages and towns.

The full report will be online here.

Might be worth comparing Israeli and Hezbollah objections to HRW.
