Back Jacket

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."
-New York Times Book Review
