Earlier this month, South Africa accused Israel of committing genocide in its ongoing war in Gaza, and both countries have made their cases before the International Court of Justice in The Hague. A decision will probably take weeks, and the case is likely to last for years. Our guest is a professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University and is considered one of the world's leading authorities on genocide. Professor Omer Bartov was born in Israel in 1954 and lived there until the late 1980s. He served in the Israeli Military during the Yom Kippur War in 1973. He was on the Florida Gulf Coast University campus on Wednesday, January 17 to give a talk as part of the Liebert World Affairs Lecture Series titled "Speaking of Genocide: The Holocaust, Israel-Palestine, and the War in Gaza since the October 7 Massacre."

Toni Westland joined the federal workforce as a ranger with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers giving lock and dam tours on the Mississippi River. She then had a stint in north Georgia at Lake Lanier, then moved on to Lake Okeechobee and then Manatee Park in East Fort Myers. At some point she had vacationed on Sanibel Island so knew she loved the J.N. “Ding” Darling Wildlife Refuge, so when the opportunity arose in 2002 for her to join their team as an education specialist, she jumped on it and has been at Ding Darling ever since. Now, she's taking an early retirement as part of the federal government's downsizing DOGE efforts.
