GOLDSTONE REPORT - WHY THE RETRACTION? WHO GOT TO HIM AND HOW?




The Goldstone Report was acknowledged around the world - other than in Israel - as a factual interpretation of the Israeli attack on Gaza at the end of 2008, and the evidence was substantiated by independent reports from many organisations involved in investigation of Israel's human rights violations in the world's largest ever concentration camps of Gaza and the West Bank - the occupied territories.

Goldstone has now made a public retraction of major points in his report in the Washington Post, and the immediate response in that paper was a flood of about 800 postings of various hues which are an education in themselves.

The interesting fact is that none of this backwards and forwards attacking by Israel and the Palestinians will come to an end until the USA sees the light and stops supporting this apartheid regime which is inflaming unrest around the world involving power struggles by so many divergent groups, countries and orgnisations.

Goldstone himself is now in a state of denial and has discredited himself, even though his report should not be discredited because of his denial. Is this on th level of holocaust and AIDS deniers?

It certainly smacks of that level of naivete!
