This chapter examines the complexities surrounding allegations of Israel's role in a potential famine in Gaza during ongoing warfare. It highlights the challenges of aid distribution and the measures Israel has taken to facilitate humanitarian assistance, while critiquing the narrative of deliberate starvation and the role of UN agencies.
British Army major and Sandhurst lecturer Andrew Fox recently spent a week with the Israel Defense Forces including a day inside Gaza. He was struck by the IDF's control of Gazan territory and shocked by the level of physical devastation. Listen as Fox and EconTalk's Russ Roberts discuss Fox's analysis of Israel's performance in the Gazan war, why Fox believes that Israel is succeeding, and what he thinks Israel's critics get right and wrong.
