The total destruction of Gaza and the expulsion of its Palestinian inhabitants seems pretty much inevitable now, and while this suffering could not have happened without the actions of the Israeli Defence Forces, accusations for where ultimate responsibility lies have been thrown in all directions.
As Piers Morgan Uncensored is a haven for freedom of speech, many points of view have been expressed on the show, and tonight, two of the most fervent supporters of each side, political scientist and pro-Palestine activist Norman Finkelstein and Israeli Special Envoy for Trade & Innovation Fleur Hassan, face off in the studio.
Finkelstein lays out the scale of the destruction and death that has blighted Gaza, while Fleur pokes holes in nearly all of his claims. There are moments when Piers struggles to keep the peace between them, but at least the discussion is anything but dull.
