Peres: Goldstone owes the State of Israel an apology

Addressing a recent op-ed by Richard Goldstone, President Shimon Peres said that the retired South African jurist should apologize to the State of Israel for accusing it of war crimes during Operation Cast Lead, Israel Radio reported.
"Goldstone ignored the central reason for the IDF operation in Gaza," Peres said, "the firing of thousands of rockets at innocent Israeli citizens."
He added that the IDF acted in self defense, investigated its own actions and will continue to be one of the most moral armies in the world.
