Anti-semitic cartoons follow Goldstone's would-be retraction
Predictably, even as Goldstone still signaled a negative sentiment towards Israel in his supposed retraction, the Islamic world reacted quite repugnantly:
The Arab world has reacted with vicious anti-Semitism to retired Judge Richard Goldstone's change of heart about his report to the United Nations on Israel's 3-week counter terrorism war against the Hamas rulers of Gaza two years ago. [...] A post on the website of the New York-based Anti-Defamation League gives examples of numerous anti-Semitic cartoons published in newspapers across the Middle East.Let that be a lesson how, even if the libel perpetrator doesn't apologize seriously, the enemy can and will still turn against him for depriving them of a libel weapon they'd hoped to use against Israel, even if he didn't backtrack in actuality.
Some show Goldstone being bribed with “gold” by an Israeli soldier. Others feature Jews with stereotyped features such as a beard and a hat controlling the judge.
