Today, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is meeting with
President Donald Trump at the White House to discuss bringing an
end to the conflict in Gaza. Last week, he was giving a fiery
speech at the UN General Assembly denying the accusation of
genocide levelled at Israel following a UN report.

In response to an earlier Battle Lines interview with one of the
report's authors, Venetia gets the other side of the argument
with Dr. Eran Shamir-Borer, a former head of the International
Law Department in the Israel Defense Forces and part of Israel's
team at the International Court of Justice defending the
country's against a genocide case there. He is now director of
the Center for Security and Democracy at the Israel Democracy
Institute and shares his legal perspective on why the UN
Commission of Inquiry's report was wrong and Israel is not
committing genocide in Gaza. Plus he discusses how Hamas'
operating tactics makes the Gaza war one of the most morally and
legally complex in modern history.
