The Al Jazeera news network says it will submit a case file to the International Criminal Court on the killing of reporter Shireen Abu Akleh, who was shot dead earlier this month during an Israeli raid in the occupied West Bank.

The Qatar-based network and the Palestinian Authority have accused Israeli soldiers of deliberately killing her. Israel rejects those allegations as a "blatant lie." It says she was shot during a firefight between soldiers and Palestinian militants, and that only ballistic analysis of the bullet -- which is held by the PA -- can determine who fired the fatal shot.

Al Jazeera said the case file would also including the Israeli bombing of the building housing its offices in Gaza City during last year's war between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas, "as well as the continuous incitements and attacks on its journalists operating in the occupied Palestinian territories."

Israel says it cannot determine whether Palestinian militants or its own soldiers fired the fatal shot unless the PA hands over the bullet that killed Abu Akleh for ballistic analysis. The PA has refused to cooperate with Israel in any way, saying it doesn't trust Israel to investigate itself.

Palestinian Authority probe says Israeli forces deliberately killed journalist | CBC NewsThe Palestinian Authority on Thursday announced the results of its investigation into the shooting death of Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, saying it had proven she was deliberately killed by Israeli forces as she tried to flee. Yeah I was following this on a few news pages. Israel needs to be investigated for this and another recent attack that was reported as Israel's responsibility Why listen to an investigation by either the Israeli or Palestinians. They are both too biased in their views. Of course it did. About as predictable as the arrival of Santa Claus on December 25th.
