Commission Members
Former Israeli Supreme Court Justice, Jacob Turkel, will head it, described as a conservative jurist with little experience in inquiry commissions, but a great deal handling military court appeals always ruling for Israel, virtually never for victimized Palestinian plaintiffs.
Amos Horev is Israel's other member, an 86-year old retired major general and prominent military-industrial complex figure, active in its nuclear and high technology programs.
Two non-voting foreign observers are:
David Trimble, head of Northern Ireland's Ulster Unionist Party, First Minister of the Good Friday Agreement's power-sharing government, and current Conservative Party life peer, a man Sean McPhilemy discussed in his book titled, "The Committee," explaining:
He was involved (on a sinister level) in the unionist ferment, aligned with a tightly organized group of (Ulster's) most powerful Protestant businessmen and professionals, along with with loyalist death squads and Royal Ulster Constabulary killers (RUC), until the Police Service of Northern Ireland replaced it in 2001. Together, they murdered republicans and others considered a threat to union with Britain under Protestant Northern Ireland rule, often killing people for being Catholic.
For this, he won the 1998 Nobel Peace Prize, given to war criminals, not peacemakers, past winners including Henry Kissinger, four Israeli warlord prime ministers, and Barack Obama, at the same time he escalated war in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen, and threatens more in other regions.
