Israel on Trial: Examining the History, the Evidence, and the Law, United States District Judge Roy K. Altman brings legal rigor to the world's most contentious debate. Applying courtroom-tested standards--burden of proof, corroboration, chain of custody--he examines claims of colonialism, apartheid, and genocide with dispassionate precision.
In an era shaped by viral slogans and curated outrage, Judge Altman offers a disciplined method for discerning truth from propaganda. Through historical records, archaeological evidence, genetic data, and international law,
Israel on Trial shows what it means to demand proof--and what's at stake when we stop asking for it.
Key takeaways include:
- How to evaluate modern political claims using legal reasoning
- Why historical evidence still matters in present-day discourse
- What international law actually says about occupation, apartheid, and genocide
- How antisemitic tropes have evolved into mainstream talking points
- A framework for intellectual integrity in an age of ideological warfare
This is not just a book about Israel. It's a guide for anyone who believes facts still matter.
