    Britain Calls to Keep Goldstone Report

    The Goldstone Report that accused Israel of war crimes in Gaza should not be retracted, despite the fact that Judge Richard Goldstone, who led the team that wrote it, later expressed regret. So said the British Foreign Office.

    While Goldstone later said that he believes Israel did not deliberately target civilians during the counterterror campaign Cast Lead, he has not rescinded other claims made in the report, British officials said. In addition, they said, there were other reports which accused Israel of war crimes.
