#3 What it actually says is.
Interpol begins studying Iran's request for the arrest of 15 senior Israeli officials over war crimes committed during the Gaza offensive.

Not the same thing. Yet. However, with USA a tranzi country, who knows?

INTERPOL issues denial of reported Iranian request seeking arrest of 15 senior Israeli officials

Statement by INTERPOL General Secretariat headquarters, Lyon, France

02 March 2009

While INTERPOL does not ordinarily comment on false stories reported in the media, in light of the nature of recent erroneous articles reporting that INTERPOL is being used by Iranian authorities to seek the arrest of 15 senior Israeli officials on alleged charges of war crimes in Gaza, the Organization is taking the unusual step of making the following public statement:

INTERPOL has neither been requested to issue by Iran, nor has it issued on behalf of Iran or any of its 187 member countries any Red Notices for persons wanted internationally or other requests seeking the arrest of senior Israeli officials for alleged war crimes in relation to the Gaza offensive in December and January.

INTERPOLs Constitution strictly prohibits the Organization from making any intervention or activities of a political, military, religious or racial character.

All further enquiries should be directed to the source reported in the media. Since INTERPOL has received no information in relation to the alleged false claim, INTERPOL is unable to comment further on this matter.
