Dear Iain, I would encourage you to listen back to the clip before continuing to misrepresent it. It was a year ago, so perhaps you should be forgiven. I certainly didn’t insult anyone, unless you consider the truth to be insulting? It is possible that Michael Mansfield shares such a belief - it is he who rudely left a conversation on the radio, seemingly unable to stomach being corrected on the law. I don’t tend to engage on X, because it is not the best use of time, but I make an exception here, in light of David’s valiant efforts and since it is a medium in which you can’t cut me off - it seems like a good opportunity to set the record straight. Your earlier guest had misled your audience when he claimed that Israel was losing its democracy. Despite the passage of time since our conversation, you can see that Israel is still a thriving democracy and is preparing itself for yet another democratic election. The only real democracy in the Middle East. True, not a high bar, but Israel's democratic practises can also put many European countries to shame. It is a pity that you did not allow me the time during the program to explain this. As we progressed in the conversation, you gave an example which was wholly inappropriate: you suggested that you might be barred from entering due to having criticised Israel. I said that misrepresented what these two MPs had done, and you cut me off. Had you not done so, I would have told you that your example flies in the face of the fact that Israel has free press and free speech. It is a place where everybody can - and many do - criticise Israel, its Government, its Prime Minister or any other body or person. All you would have to do is turn on Israeli TV (with subtitles?) and this would be evident to you. What was even more egregious, however, was the suggestion that the falsehoods these MPs had told immigration officials, and their campaign for BDS - a vehicle for incitement and the attempted destruction of Israel - is somehow comparable with “criticism”. Immigration turned these politicians away under a framework parallel to the one we deploy in the UK.

Now that the real culprits of any shortages in Gaza have been admitted – Hamas – where is the international outcry? Israel’s facilitation of Aid into Gaza has exceeded the needs of the population and surpassed the requirements of international law. Attempts internationally to blame Israel and whitewash Hamas do an outrageous disservice to Arab Palestinian civilians.

Is Amnesty International simply illiterate, or do they just think they can keep getting away with the same lie? There was never any ICJ finding of "plausible risk". It is invented. The Court used the standard language of plausible rights without any assessment of the claim, as the judge who wrote the order, Joan Donoghue, herself explained. Amnesty International

The global misinformation campaign surrounding Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, has reached fever-pitch. Time for some home truths! I examine the publicly available evidence, explain Israel's Incarceration of Unlawful Combatants Law and address what international humanitarian law actually says. The international NGOs, politicians, celebrities and media broadcasters pushing this false narrative must be held to account!

The announcement of the Committee to Protect Journalists that it will revise its database, after removing members of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad whom it had previously listed as journalists, is too little too late. Discussing the immense damage the CPJ has done, with David Ross. The CPJ's false figures have been widely cited by governments, NGOs, campaign groups and international media organisations, even after independent researchers have called out this misinformation.

The scandalous conduct of the UN’s Commission of Inquiry against Israel continues, now with the absurd allegation that Israel deliberately targets Palestinian children. This grotesque Hamas propaganda simply regurgitates the medieval blood libel - of Jews killing children - and continues the familiar pattern of projection in all these false allegations against Israel. The involvement of UN bodies in this circus is truly disgraceful and renders the institution itself absurd.

When Piers lets his expert guests speak, he gets answers. Just not the kind he wants to hear.

Those who misrepresent these strikes as illegal need to go back to the law books. The ongoing Iran-Israel armed conflict is the context in which Israel launched Operation Roaring Lion in accordance with the international law of armed conflict. The US assistance of a major non-NATO Ally is further buttressed by President Trump's references to pre-emptive strikes against imminent Iranian threats. Misusing the name of international law and spreading misinformation about the applicable legal framework in pursuit of political agendas does a disservice to the international legal order.

These are the two critical messages: you have been lied to, and this is not just about Israel.
