In this episode of the Voice for Freedom Podcast, Simeon Myers and International Lawyer and Expert Natasha Hausdorff delve into the critical distinction between the rule of law and lawfare, particularly in the context of Israel. They discuss how lawfare is being used as a tool to manipulate public opinion and undermine democratic values, with a focus on the role of international law and media in shaping narratives.
