Review:
A great book . . . a must-read for anybody who cares about peace in the Middle East, who cares about the survival of the state of Israel, who cares about America’s relations with Israel.” Alan Dershowitz
compelling, thoughtful, and highly readable . . . Muravchik is not an apologist for Israel or the mistakes it has made, but he is an advocate for fairness and balance and for one having one set of standards to judge Israel and its neighbors. Rarely has a book been more timely.” Ambassador Dennis Ross
At once impassioned and clear-headed, this abundantly-researched discussion of Israel’s decline in world public opinion is necessary reading for all who care about this highly vulnerable country.” Philip K. Jason, Jewish Book World
One of the very best books ever written on the ongoing war the Arab/Muslim world has been waging against Israel since the day it came into existence.” Norman Podhoretz
An exciting and essential read for anyone who cares about Israel's survival.” Martin Peretz
A . . . fascinating book about the origins of ideology.” Tevi Troy’s favorite books from this year,” National Review
Remarkable . . . lays out the best liberal pro-Israel arguments . . . The very arguments raging today against Israel . . . are all discussed and masterfully defeated.” Elder of Ziyon blog
This book may not lift your spirits, but if you want to understand why the world seems to love to beat up on Israel it should be at the top of your summer reading list.” Aaron Leibel, Washington Jewish Week
A powerful indictment of the West’s serial moral failures regarding Israel and the Middle East conflict.” Sol Stern, Mosaic Magazine
The best source available to show readers how and why Israel is seen as a victimizer and oppressor, not as a David facing a vast array of Arab reactionaries” Ronald Radosh, The Weekly Standard
The campaign to delegitimize Israel is a call to arms, a danger . . . If things were ordered rationally, Making David into Goliath would stop that campaign dead in its tracks.” David Pryce-Jones, National Review
