We have focused frequently on the lawfare strategy against Israel, advocated by people like Hastings College of Law Professor George Bisharat, which has been a primary focus of Palestinian political strategy ever since Israel put a halt to suicide bombings by building the security barrier.
Lawfare against Israel, however, is based on politics, not law, and is an attempt to delegitimize Israel since they can?t blow it up.
One of the best explanations of the legal and political background is presented in this video by Northwestern Law Professor Eugene Kontorovich.? He puts the lie to the currently fashionable notion that the ?1967 borders? have any legal or historical signficance, and demonstrates that Israel does not ?illegally occupy? the West Bank.? In fact, it was Jordan which illegally occupied the West Bank prior to 1967.
