Maan News Agency: Ashrawi: We will prosecute crimes against Palestinians

Maan News Agency: Ashrawi: We will prosecute crimes against PalestiniansRAMALLAH (Ma'an) -- PLO leader Hanan Ashrawi expressed concern Monday over Richard Goldstone's recent comments over his report on Israel's Operation Cast Lead offensive on the Gaza Strip .

In an opinion piece published Friday by The Washington Post, Goldstone reconsidered his report, which found evidence that Israel and Hamas committed war crimes and crimes against humanity during the 22-day attack.

"If I had known then what I know now, the Goldstone Report would have been a different document," the retired judge wrote.
