<p>GAZA, (PIC)&#8211; The Islamic Jihad  Movement said Richard Goldstone&#8217;s backtracking on what came in his  report might be exploited by Israel to wage a new war and commit  massacres in Gaza.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Islamic Jihad official Ahmed Mudalal  stated on Sunday that what was shockingly said by Goldstone recently  resulted from pressures by the Zionist lobby aimed to end Israel&#8217;s  international isolation.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Mudalal said that Goldstone&#8217;s claim that  his report would have led to different conclusions if he had obtained  specific information would encourage Israel to commit more war crimes  against the Palestinians.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">In this regard, specialist in Israeli  affairs Saleh Al-Na&#8217;ami said that Goldstone has no right to manipulate  what came in his report which was prepared by a group of experts and  individually.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Na&#8217;ami, in a press statement to the  Palestinian information center (PIC), also opined that Goldstone did not  say anything that refers to his backtracking on his position. &#8220;The  findings are still as they are and Goldstone just considered the  occupation state&#8217;s interrogation of its soldiers a good thing.&#8221;</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">For his part, Palestinian legal expert  Jaber Wishah said that Goldstone report is a legal document issued by  the UN and adopted by its human rights council, and cannot be affected  by personal positions or remarks made by Goldstone as he stated in the  press.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">European human rights organizations also  demanded in a meeting held in this regard the UN to state its position  clearly towards Goldstone&#8217;s latest remarks in which he claimed that the  findings in his report would have been different if Israel had  cooperated with the UN probe committee.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">The organizations said that the timing of  Goldstone&#8217;s remarks is very serious, since they were made as Israel  started to escalate its aggression against the Gaza Strip.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">During the meeting, Anwar Al-Gharbi, the  head of the Swiss organization rights for all, stated that what  Goldstone said made the international community and the UN probe  committee at stake.</p>
