Alan Dershowitz-the #1 New York Times bestselling author and one of America's most influential legal scholars-advocates for the Jewish homeland. Dershowitz has spent years advocating for his "most challenging client"―the state of Israel-and has been a staunch supporter both in public and in private, holding meetings with high-level international figures that include every US president and Israeli leader of the past forty years. Through personal insights and unreported details, Defending Israel is a comprehensive history of modern Israel from the perspective of one of the country's most important defenders and offers insights into the high-profile controversies and debates that Dershowitz has taken part in over the years. Defending Israel is a balanced defense of the Jewish homeland on numerous points, which includes Dershowitz's criticisms of Israeli decisions and policies that he believes to be unwise. At a time when Jewish Americans are increasingly uncertain as to who supports Israel and who doesn't, there is no better book to turn to for answers―and a pragmatic look toward the future.
