An excellent and fairly balanced analysis of the Goldstone report and the unfortunate bias that is simply a reality at the U.N. and in reports like this. This article be Moshe Halertal by no means gives blanket support for the war. The alternatives are clearly pointed out. But in a manner that is clearer than most who have attempted it, the difference between traditional war and war with a terrorist entity is extremely well done. And again, the question is raised whether any war against such an entity embedded in a civilian population should be carried out at all, given the necessary moral compromises one is forced to make. And that is a valid point. Halbertal artfully allows the reader to entertain this possibility while at the same time asking the reader to put themselves in the shoes of those who do choose the option of war and do try to balance some kind of morality along the way.The Goldstone Illusion The New Republic
