‘THE laws of war must guide Israel’s response to Hamas atrocity.” Not my words but those of a group of eminent Jewish lawyers in a letter to the Financial Times earlier this week.
The barbarity inflicted by them and the taking of hostages are war crimes. Second, under international law, Israel has the right to respond and to defend itself and its citizens.

Under it, a temporary evacuation of a given area may only be carried out if it is absolutely necessary for civilians’ security or for imperative military reasons. Any restrictions on the movement of people and goods to implement a siege must be justified by military necessity or may otherwise amount to collective punishment.

Acts of genocide include killings, causing serious bodily or mental harm, deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about physical destruction in whole or in part, birth prevention, or forcibly transferring children.They are warning that we are in the era of atrocity prevention and currently have a short window of opportunity to prevent the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Gaza.
Those who assumed at the outset that it was the responsibility of the IDF have come in for a lot of criticism.
