Why Palestinian claims of Genocide are Wrong as a Matter of International Law and Fact
My article, published in The Messenger, refutes the Palestinian claim that Israel is engaged in Genocide, both as a matter of international law and the facts. I further explain that whether Israel has violated the principle of proportionality under the law of war will depend upon whether independent investigators can demonstrate that Hamas did not have a warren of tunnels under Gaza and that Hamas leadership did not order residents to stay in their homes when Israel told them to evacuate. If independent investigators cannot establish these facts, then Hamas is responsible for much of the death and destruction that has occurred in Gaza.
