Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson strongly criticizes calls for an arms embargo on Israel, warning that it would be a "death wish of Western civilization" and could lead to a victory for Hamas. He argues that such a move would be detrimental to Israel's security and plays into Hamas' tactics of provoking a violent response and garnering international sympathy. Johnson acknowledges the need for an investigation into recent incidents but emphasizes the moral difference between Hamas and Israel.
