The UN General Assembly is set to vote on a resolution requiring Israel to conduct an investigation into charges of war crimes committed during its January offensive on Gaza.
The assembly's 192 member nations will decide on the non-binding resolution on Thursday at the end of a two-day debate on a report by an independent UN fact-finding committee headed by former war crimes prosecutor Richard Goldstone.
The damning report mainly highlighted Israeli violation of international laws during the deadly attacks by Israeli fighter jets and ground troops during the Gaza onslaught that left more than 1,400 Palestinians, mostly civilians, killed.
The UN committee charged the Israeli army with intentional targeting of places known to hold civilians and using Palestinians as human shields among other war crimes.

Non binding --- If everything goes in Israel's favor --- it was a good suggestion
If it all goes against Israel --- it was only a suggestion
-----------------
And what will the suggestion be limited to ?
Hey we think this report might be true -- please investigate yourself for gross crimes of war and against humanity and tell us how that comes out would you ?
And even if Israel takes the suggestion and investigates itself --- gee - Nope we didn't do it --- ?
Who the F---k is paying for this ?
How much do these toothless UN resolutions and waste of time debates cost taxpayers?
I don't want to send the Prime Minister or any government official to these meetings again -- If they want to go let them pay for it out of their wages
