Amnesty International criticised the summary trials of more than 2,000 former South Lebanon Army militia members and those said to have "collaborated" with Israel as "travesties" of justice. "Such summary trials, with barely seven minutes spent on each individual, neither allow the innocent to be acquitted nor ensure that those who may be guilty of war crimes will be discovered," Amnesty International said. Amnesty International called on Lebanon, Israel and other governments to bring to fair trial, without imposing the death penalty, any Lebanese or Israeli implicated in war crimes whatever their political affiliations or the country they may be in.
