Dr. Segal will discuss a number of topics, including the definition of genocide under international law and how it applies to Israel’s, and possibly Hamas’, conduct on and after October 7th as well as within the context of the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict; the international response to the horrific violence; potential interventions by the international community; and what we as individuals can do to help bring an end to this appalling human tragedy. After his presentation, Dr. Segal will conduct a Q&A with the audience.
