The United States on Friday condemned as tragic irony the International Criminal Courts decision to open a preliminary probe into possible war crimes committed by Israeli forces against Palestinians. We strongly disagree with the ICC prosecutors action today, State Department spokesman Jeff Rathke said in a statement. It is a tragic irony that Israel, which has withstood thousands of terrorist rockets fired at its civilians and its neighbourhoods, is now being scrutinised by the ICC, he added. The ICCs prosecutor on Friday opened the probe into the alleged war crimes, including during last years offensive in Gaza.
