After the October 7 attacks by Hamas and other groups on Israeli civilians, Israel has embarked on a series of offences that have lasted over 7 months by now. In the October 7 attacks many Israeli lives were lost. In the military actions that have followed many Gazan lives have been lost, over several times.

In response International Criminal Court has sought warrants against Israeli PM Binyamin Netanyahu, Defence Minister Yoav Gallant and Hamas leaders Yahya Sinwar, Mohammed Diab Ibrahim al-Masri(Deif), Ismail Haniyeh.

In this long ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict, this seems like the latest ongoing episode. But there is more to it.

NOTE: This is an informal conversation being offered to listeners with some perspectives in mind. Some of the things being said might not be fully correct but there is context to it that might not have been possible to cover/include/mention in this podcast episode. People have spent their lifetimes to understand the issue at hand and it is a contentious issue involving emotions from both sides. My attempt is to merely scratch the surface and I am sure to have failed at that. But if it helps you in getting some new views and ideas, I would have succeeded by some measure.
