This week we have a special episode recorded immediately after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued warrants against both leaders of Hamas and, more strikingly, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. To discuss this, we've dialled up Kenneth Roth, an expert in international law and former executive director of Human Rights Watch. Nicholas Mostyn and Charlie Falconer probe him on whether Israel can meaningfully be accused of genocide or other war crimes and human rights abuses, while Helena Kennedy recounts her experiences as part of the advisory panel that recommended bringing these warrants against Mr Netanyahu.
