Last night Ambassador Dore Gold debated Justice Goldstone at Brandeis. Organizers were careful not to call it a debate but a debate it was and judging from the reaction of the audience Ambassador Gold was the winner. Ambassador Gold gave a rousing defense of Israel's actions during Operation Caste Lead otherwise known as the Gaza War.
Gold's presentation revolved around three themes: the ethos of the Israeli military that runs completely contrary to the claims made by Goldstone; the sending of 12,000 rockets by Hamas into southern Israel for 8 years before Israel responded, and finally the extent to which the Israeli army went beyond what any other normal army would do to protect Palestinians in Gaza.

Tonight, Ambassador Gold defended Israel as few have ever done before.
