Israel Clears Self of Wrongdoing in 2006 Attack

The Yahoo headlines caught my attention:

I was surprised to see that a "probe" would exonerate Israel for its indiscriminate use of cluster bombs in Lebanon, which left unexploded remnants throughout the country. It was roundly opposed as a weapon in war even before Israel used with without mercy in Lebanon in 2006.

When I clicked on the link to learn more about the legal reasoning, I was not as surprised to find out that the probe was an internal one -- a little fact left out of the Yahoo headline:

Israeli military prosecutors have decided not to take any legal action over Israel's use of cluster bombs during last year's war in Lebanon, the army said Monday, closing an investigation into a practice that has drawn heavy criticism from the U.N. and international human rights groups.

I don't know about you, but why are sham internal self-investigations covered as news? Larry Craig should investigate his actions at the Minneapolis airport. He could then put out news that his investigation shows that he was right about attributing his playing footsy with a undercover policeman to his "wide stance."
