The International Criminal Court has paved the way for its chief prosecutor to open a war crimes probe into Israeli military actions during the 1967 Mideast war. While the Palestinians were happy with the decision, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opposed the move while accusing the court of "legal persecution." ICC's chief prosecutor, Fatou Bensouda, however, found it reasonable to probe the military actions in Gaza strip.
