South African judge Richard Goldstone has spent his judicial career investigating some of the world's thorniest political and human rights crises, from apartheid in his native country to ethnic cleansing in the Balkans. But he is perhaps best known internationally for his controversial 2009 United Nations report on the war in Gaza, which included strong criticism of both Israel and Hamas. He joins us in the studio.

Host: Michael Krasny

Guests:

  • Richard Goldstone, retired justice for the Constitutional Court of South Africa, lecturer at Stanford Law School, and former leader of the U.N. fact-finding mission on the Gaza Conflict
