Tomorrow (Friday 29 January) marks the end of the three-month deadline for the UN General Assembly to report on the Gaza War. The Assembly called for the report in response to the recommendation of the Goldstone Report, on behalf of the UN Human Rights Council, that its report be discussed by the Assembly and prosecutions then sought through the International Criminal Court at the Hague. It's not clear if Secretary Ban - who was asked to consider the results of investigations by Israel and the Palestinians that were recommended by Goldstone - will say whether he is in a position to make a statement. Israel refused to co-operate with any UN-led inquiry or to carry out an investigation.
