Peter Hartcher on why Israel needs to show restraint, and what happens if it doesn't
It’s now 11 days since Israel began bombing Gaza, in retaliation for the gruesome attack on Israel by Hamas. Until recently, Israel’s allies have been reluctant to call on the country to temper its response to the militant group. But now that appears to be changing. The world’s lens is starting to shift away from the atrocities suffered by Israel. And towards Gaza, where the number of innocent civilians dying increases with every passing day. Today, political and international editor Peter Hartcher joins me to discuss why now is the time for Israel to begin showing restraint. And where this conflict could move to next.
