Summary

A controversial--and vital--report on the truth behind Israel's incursion into Gaza and the atrocities committed by both sides with accompanying essays and analysis.

Description

The Goldstone Report is one of the most controversial UN reports ever published. It alleges that both Israel and Hamas committed atrocities during Israels 2009 incursion into Gaza, with Israel aiming to punish, humiliate and terrorise a civilian population. This characterization incited an uproar in Israel and abroad. Unfortunately, the controversy surrounding the findings supplanted any real understanding of their implications. Edited by three progressive American Jews, The Goldstone Report contains analysis; commentary by Desmond Tutu, Naomi Klein, and Rashid Khalidi, among others; and a context for debate.
