Arms' suppliers could be complicit in abuses with Israel: UN
 [GEO.TV] A group of United Nations...boodling on the grand scale... (UN) experts on Thursday warned arms and ammunition manufacturers against taking part in the transfer of weapons to Israel, saying it could make them complicit in human rights ...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless... abuses and violations of international law. The group of 30 experts, including several UN Special Rapporteurs, said arms manufacturers supplying Israel should halt their transfers of war materiel, "even if they are executed under existing export licenses". "These companies, by sending weapons, parts, components, and ammunition to Israeli forces, risk being complicit in serious violations of international human rights and international humanitarian laws," the experts said in a statement.
