Mark Regev defending the indefensible (In The Name of Humanity)

A brilliant interview by Alex Thomson. Story... We have heard something today from the International Red Cross that I am not aware of hearing in recent times. The ICRC has criticised Israel for being in breach of international humanitarian law. This after it was discovered that 12 people had been killed in a house in Gaza and their small children had been left to starve. The Red Cross were consistently denied access to the building, despite local knowledge that there were people inside it. And even when eventually Red Cross workers were permitted to venture to the building, they were denied the right to bring an ambulance to take the children, who were too weak to walk. Instead critical time was lost as the Red Cross workers went in search of a donkey cart.
