Lack of bias for us constitutes bias against us

Both the government of Israel and the leadership of Hamas angrily rejected the findings of the Goldstone report which found both sides were at fault and both sides committed war crimes during the recent Gaza conflict.

Richard Goldstone, a respected South African judge - who happens to be Jewish - took the job of doing the Gaza investigation to try to do the best thing for peace and for Israel said his daughter.

She added that her father wrestled with the decision to take on the task. "It wasn't easy [for him]," Nicole Goldstone said. "My father did not expect to see and hear what he saw and heard."

The even handed report that condemns both sides has prompted an all hands on deck response from the Israeli government, condemning it as 'propaganda, antisemitism and Israel bashing' but an investigation headed by a respected Jewish jurist who found both sides at fault will be difficult to dismiss.
