Readers interested in the Middle East conflict, especially supporters of Israel, NPR listeners, PBS viewers, fans of Aan Dershowitz; college bookstores and courses; public and school libraries; Jewish organizations.ÂDescriere
"Overwhelming . . . a must–read for American Jews, particularly those on college campuses who have no inkling of how to counter the massive verbal assault on Israel. . . . A profound contribution to a country now in dire straits."
Jerusalem Post In this impassioned book, Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz responds to Israel’s vociferous opponents and explains why Israel, while not perfect, is a country that has earned the right to exist and defend itself. Drawing on scrupulous research and his peerless skills as an advocate, Dershowitz conclusively refutes thirty–two separate slurs, slanders, and misrepresentations that have been hurled at Israel in recent years, from "Jews have always rejected the two–state solution" and "Israel created the Arab refugee problem" to "universities should divest from Israel." Hard–hitting, well–reasoned, and provocative, The Case for Israel is essential reading if you’re concerned about the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
"A lively, hotly argued broadside against Israel’s increasingly venomous critics."
Washington Post Book World
"Passionately argued . . . revealing and persuasive."
The Times (London)
"Dershowitz . . . knows how to construct an argument. . . . Especially effective at pointing to the hypocrisy of many of Israel’s critics."
