Autor Alan M. Dershowitz
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 sep 2009
The New York Times bestselling author of The Case for Israel takes on the greatest threats faced by Israel today In addition to Hamas, which provoked the recent war and Gaza with its rocket attacks on Israeli civilians, Alan Dershowtiz argues that Israel′s most dangerous enemies include Jimmy Carter and other western leaders who would delegitimize Israel as an apartheid regime subject to the same fate as white South Africans; Israel′s academic enemies, led by professors Stephen Walt and John Mearsheimer, who would accuse supporters of Israel of dual loyalty and indeed disloyalty to America; and Iran, led by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, which threatens Israel by its development of nuclear weapons, which it has publicly threatened to use against the Jewish state. Persuasively argues that Jimmy Carter and other enemies of Israel are also enemies of peace, imperiling not only Israel but the rest of the world Sparks controversy and lively discussion across the entire spectrum of opinion on the Middle East Passionate and outspoken: "As always when Israel needs to be defended . . . Alan Dershowitz speaks with great passion and personal courage."–Elie Wiesel Alan Dershowitz is at his outspoken, thought–provoking best in The Case Against Israel′s Enemies , changing both the tone and the focus of the debate about Israel′s adversaries at a time when the future existence of Israel is increasingly imperiled.

Descriere

Israel′s Greatest Threats Exposed By Israel′s Best Defender "As always when Israel needs to be defended . . . Alan Dershowitz speaks with great passion and personal courage."— Elie Wiesel "This is a compelling book that unmasks the dangerous revisionism that distorts the real Israel. Dershowitz debunks former President Jimmy Carter′s apartheid analogy, Walt and Mearsheimer′s canard of dual loyalty, the immorality of the British boycott of Israeli academics, and the bigotry of the anti–Israel hard left and right. He also assesses the existential threats against Israel and the options available to the Jewish state. A must–read for all who care about international justice and Israel′s survival in a world of biased enemies."— The Honorable Irwin Cotler , Member of Parliament and former Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada; Professor of Law (on leave from McGill University) Writing with passion and power, Alan Dershowitz challenges the claims and actions of those he views to be Israel′s most dangerous enemies in the West, such as Jimmy Carter, Stephen Walt and John Mearsheimer, Noam Chomsky, and Pat Buchanan. Dershowitz also takes on Israel′s military enemies, including Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Filled with brilliant analysis, telling anecdotes, and startling revelations of the motives that drive many of Israel′s most virulent detractors, The Case Against Israel′s Enemies is compelling reading for anyone who is interested in current events or concerned about Israel′s future.
