Goldstone Says He Won’t Seek Nullification of Gaza War Report

Local Editor

South African jurist Richard Goldstone said Tuesday that he did not plan to seek nullification of his highly critical UN report on "Israel's" 2008-2009 offensive in the Gaza Strip and asserted that claims to the contrary by Interior Minister Eli Yishai were false.

In an interview with The Associated Press, Goldstone said that he never discussed the report with Yishai in the telephone conversation.

"Israeli" leaders have called for the report to be retracted since it was issued in 2009. Nevertheless, Goldstone said, he did not intend to seek the report's nullification.
