About This Video

When the state of Israel was founded in 1948, it was done so with the approval of the United Nations. But today, Israel's enemies routinely challenge the legitimacy of its very existence. So, under international law, who's right? Israel? Or its enemies?

In light of recent terrorist attacks aimed at Jews in Israel, please sign the petition to condemn Hamas and stand with Israel.
