Reply #9: A neutral party should be responsible for any investigation [View All]

[daleo]

Normally, the U.N. is the most impartial international body around. Given that U.N. peacekeepers were killed, there might be some question of their objectivity. Clearly an Israeli investigation would not be considered impartial.

Who's left? It would have to be someone most people trust to be objective. One of the nordic countries? Japan? South Africa?

In practice, a joint U.N.-Israel-Lebanon inquiry would make the most sense. One would hope their advesarial roles in this matter would lead to the truth, as is supposed to happen in the court system.
