Much has been made of the Israeli success in rolling out its vaccine program. Just as much has been made of the fact that Palestinians do not have access to the Israeli-procured vaccine. Is this an outrage? Can it be explained? Have the Israelis refused to provide the jab to the Palestinians? Have the Palestinians asked for help? Does Israel have legal and moral obligations to honour? These are just a few of the questions raised. In seeking to provide some clarity here I will inevitably be criticised by one side or the other, or more likely both. And within the limits of this piece, I am unable to drill down deep into the nuances of the arguments on both sides. But here is, I hope, some context.
