Morality and War in Gaza
Episode #153
Bill and Phil examine how the rules of war and Just War Doctrine apply to the conflict between Israel and Hamas, discuss what Jim Jordan’s nomination to be House Speaker and the recent elections in Poland teach us about the state of democracy, and close with a look at artificial intelligence and whether Bill should be excited or worried that soon a machine will be making his Chipotle burrito.
