What price the Israel witch-hunt now?
Judge Goldstone Disavows His Anti-Israel UN Report, But Accepts No Responsibility For Its Slander
Washington Post "As Goldstone acknowledges, Israel has looked into every charge of war crimes — incident by incident. Some soldiers have indeed been punished because some awful things happened. But overall, Israel adheres to a morality we all recognize and admire — and that its enemies, Hamas in particular, do not. Those who gleefully embraced the Goldstone report have to ask themselves why. They may hate the answer."
Goldstone: You Cannot Undo a Slander "No, apparently Goldstone’s conscience troubled him. While that’s progress for him, the retraction cannot possibly correct his shameful contribution to lies, slander, and the moral perversion of the so-called “international community.”"
Goldstone’s Mea Culpa and Israel’s Wars "Essential to restoring that upper hand to Israel is the recognition — which is exactly what the Goldstone Report denied — of the difference between a democratic country defending itself and terrorist organizations using the most cynical means imaginable in fighting it. Whether Israel can now expect more sympathy is something that, according to one veteran Israeli analyst, we may soon find out. Count me pessimistic."
Richard Goldstone and Palestinian statehood "
Goldstone is gone -- but NY Times steps into the anti-Israel breach "Bronner, however, lumps combatant and non-combatant Palestinian fatalities in one big, exaggerated total so as to hide the fact that the IDF went to extraordinary lengths to spare civilian lives by dropping leaflets and using telephone calls to warn Gazans to say out of combat zones. No other military in the world has shown such solicitude for keeping civilians as safe as possible -- the very opposite of Bronner's false intimation."
Goldstone Recants! Will the Left Follow His Example? "The Goldstone report was a pivotal moment in the growing effort to delegitimize Israel. What we must now hear are similar apologies from all those groups and individuals, from Human Rights Watch to J Street to mainstream bloggers like Andrew Sullivan and minor Palestinian mouthpieces like Hussein Ibish, that either defended Goldstone’s false allegations or sought to aid efforts to promote his scandalous charges. There must be an accounting from all of Goldstone’s previous champions. Like Goldstone’s report, their credibility on this issue is finished."
Amen.
