Thane Rosenbaum, "Beyond Proportionality" (Wicked Son, 2025)

from New Books in Israel Studies Hosted by Marshall Poe

Thane Rosenbaum is a novelist, essayist, law professor, and Distinguished University Professor at Touro University, where he directs the Forum on Life, Culture & Society. He has written numerous works of fiction and nonfiction, as well as hundreds of essays in major national and global publications. He is the legal analyst for CBS News Radio and appears regularly on cable TV news programs. Beyond Proportionality examines the relevant legal standards, as embodied in the U.N. Charter, international humanitarian law, and, most especially, the principle of proportionality, as codified in the Geneva Conventions, and concludes that Israel’s war in Gaza is lawful and just. And, yet, as in any war, there is collateral damage, but it is proportionate to necessary military objectives.
