Israel, Gaza and Accountability

To the Editor:
Re "Israel on Trial" (Op-Ed, April 4):
I believe that George Bisharat unfairly pillories Israel. He acknowledges that there is a special fact-finding investigation under way. Why does he not wait for the results to be reported, rather than pre-empt them with his own accusations based on his presuppositions and limited information?
If Hamas is also guilty of war crimes, as Mr. Bisharat alleges, why does he call only Israel to accountability? Is Lady Justice blind, or does she peek out to select her favorites and use the assertion of legal principles to advance their interests where advantage can be gained by allegation?
