Do you suffer from International Law Insecurity? Do you stutter incoherently when someone tells you that “Israeli settlements in the ‘West Bank’ are illegal under international law?” What about when they say “the International Court of Justice has judged Israel’s security barrier to be illegal?” Or when they call the area east of the Green Line “occupied Palestinian territory?”
Guess what? It’s all a bunch of crap, to use a technical expression.
Here, in one 46-minute lecture, is a clear explanation of what international law is and is not, and how it applies to some of the controversies around the Jewish state.
Eugene Kontorovich is Professor of Law at Northwestern University and an expert in international law. If you won’t listen to me, maybe you will pay attention to him.
