Israel issued its response to the UN Goldstone Report on Operation Cast Lead in Gaza this week. The final report was released on September 15, 2009. Israel refused to cooperate with this fact finding mission and continues to respond with “hysterical” accusations on the accuracy of the report and publicly misrepresents the findings of the mission. In this show Goldstone’s speech at Brandeis University is revisited to clarify what the report does contain and to address some of the attacks on his statements and the report itself.

This program was produced by Rustbelt Radio for February 1, 2010.
