To: Prime Minister Ariel Sharon Spokesperson of the Prime Minister Spokesperson of the Prime Minister Spokesperson Defence Ministry Foreign Minister Shimon Peres Minister of Justice Dear Colleagues, The warnings sent by Gush Shalom to Israeli officers regarding the possibility of war crimes are the most patriotic actions that any group of Israeli citizens could take. If such crimes are in fact committed in defense of Israel then the long term stain on Israel's legitimacy and respectability as a nation would be great. Any precaution against either the willful or inadvertent commission of such crimes is the duty of citizens in a democracy. Whatever the cause, some actions are surely beyond the pale in the recognized laws of the international community. Thank you.
