June 24, 2015 Myths & Facts: Online Exclusive Was Israel Guilty of War Crimes in the 2014 Gaza war? On June 22, 2015, the United Nations Human Rights Council released the findings of the commission it appointed to investigate the 2014 Gaza conflict suggesting that both Israel and Hamas may have committed war crimes.

L.:Myths & Facts: 2012 The HRC has a history of slandering Israel's human rights record while ignoring the world's worst violators of human rights. The council has condemned Israel in 45 individual resolutions, nearly as many as those directed at the rest of the countries of the world combined. The "investigation" was designed to come to the predetermined conclusion that Israel was guilty of abuses. This was evident when the council appointed as head of this supposedly impartial commission William Schabas, who previously worked for the Palestine Liberation Organization. Schabas was forced to resign after his background was disclosed, but the objective of proving Israeli crimes remained unchanged.

The coins were put on display for the first time in June 2015 at the Israel Museum's Archaeology Wing, and will be on display for only three months.
