If the Watson Institute weren’t so interested in stacking the deck, they might have invited an actual expert on war from Columbia University’s School of Law, Prof. Matthew Waxman - but then the risk to their simplistic and false narrative might have been too great.

Here’s an interview worth listening to

The last thing the Watson Institute is interested in is anyone who might question to any degree their prevailing and only acceptable “wisdom” i.e., Israel always 150% in the wrong, Palestinians always 150% in the right. Facts, law, thoughtful analyses - any thinking at all - unnecessary and irrelevant.
