Calls for Israel to restrain itself against Hamas are illegal

“The Caroline Glick Show” with guest Professor Avi Bell, Ep. 74

The Biden administration, the European Union, the United Nations, Arab nations and others have begun to wage a campaign to restrain Israel’s efforts to destroy the Hamas terror organization that rules the Gaza Strip. The campaign is based on allegations that there is a contradiction between Israel’s military operations and the laws of war, as explained on this episode of “The Caroline Glick Show.”

To understand the nature of these claims and what the laws of war require from Israel, as well as from the nations waging this campaign against Israel, Glick spoke with Professor Avi Bell. Bell is a world expert on the laws of war and international humanitarian law.
