Reflecting this interest, the Middle East conflict has inspired passionate and important political books on both sides of the debate. Such a tiny nation could hardly threaten the Muslim world, with its vast oil wealth. Since Oslo, 1993, the case of the Jewish State has highlighted Israel's pursuit of peace and security, while downplaying the right/deed of the Jewish People to its historical homeland. The Case for Pre-Emptive War, From Goliath to the Dardanelles. In August 2003, Dershowitz published The Case for Israel, which Finkelstein uses as a foil in Beyond Chutzpah, demonstrating that Dershowitz misrepresents key diplomatic, legal and historical aspects of the conflict. A hypothetical country with a pristine origin and history still does not have a right to exist. If a state was created by atrocities, etc, as Israel was, that does not lead to the conclusion that it should not exist. Little Israel should go completely unnoticed by the great Arab world—yet the exact opposite is the case. He certainly is right about that in the case of Israel, where the secular founders insisted on preserving a religious criterion for determining who is a Jew, and hence who is a member of the nation represented by the state. Yesterday I posted the video of an interview with international law professor Eugene Kontorovich on the Jewish right to Israel and the double standards that are applied to it. If I had known that Making the progressive case for Israel was going to be the last thing that its brilliant author would ever write, I would have been barely able to get the words out. Alan Dershowitz has some opinions this documentary would like to share with you.
