Also, considering the expediency of the Kosovo trial, and the outcome... it should show why putting faith in the ICC for anything short term (short term meaning like a decade) is foolish.

Additionally a play at the ICC would actually probably hurt more then help. Since legally, Palestinian "crimes" are more or less cut and dry. While Israeli crimes are basically interpretation due to proportinality and little way to prove intent.

In general, if this started hitting the courts. They'd be convicting Palestinians left and right before they even broke ground on an Israeli trial. If they did at all, since Israel has their own internal reviews, which usually means the ICC won't prosecute you.
