Colonel Kemp and anti-Israel rhetoric

During the one-sided debate, at the United Nations Human Rights Council, regarding the Goldstone Report in Geneva, Switzerland; the anti-Israel rhetoric and condemnations of the Jewish State, were momentarily halted, during a heartfelt and honest assessment of the situation, by Colonel Richard Kemp.

Colonel Kemp, (a well-respected military personality, who is the former commander of the British forces in Afghanistan); immediately captured the attention of the people in attendance, by unequivocally stating at the outset of his remarks that:
“during Operation Cast Lead, the Israeli Defense Forces did more to safeguard the rights of civilians in a combat zone, that any other army in the history of warfare.”

According to Colonel Kemp, “the civilian casualties were a consequence, of Hamas’ way of fighting.”
