El juez Richard Goldstone, un judío sudafricano, quien había servido previamente como fiscal de las Naciones Unidas tanto en Yugoslavia como también en Ruanda, presentó su reporte patrocinado por las Naciones Unidas. Este reporte estaba basado en la misión de investigación para determinar detalles sobre el conflicto Israel-Hamas en Gaza entre diciembre 2008 y enero 2009. El reporte, comúnmente conocido como el Goldstone Report, fue sumamente crítico para los dos bandos, Israel y Hamas, en cuanto a sus respectivas acciones durante el primero de los tres enfrentamientos militares más grandes entre las entidades (2008-2014). Muchos se mostraron en desacuerdo con los descubrimientos del reporte y con la metodología del mismo, considerándolo en contra de Israel y sin evidencias para sustentar ciertos reclamos. El día primero de abril de 2011, en un artículo de opinión del Washington Post, Goldstone se retractó sobre porciones del reporte que sugerían que las fuerzas israelíes mataban intencionalmente a civiles. Aunque no exonera totalmente a Israel, aun así, expresó que sus métodos investigativos eran deficientes e incompletos. También reiteró el “derecho de Israel a la soberanía y su obligación a defenderse a sí mismo y a sus ciudadanos.”

Israel is trying to improve its image by using Richard Goldstone's back peddling on the Goldstone Report on the Israeli invasion of Gaza in 2008/2009 where over 1300 Palestinians were killed by Israel while Israel just had 13 deaths.  The U.S. Senate demonstrates its faithful subservience to Israel by passing a resolution to condemn the Goldstone Report even though the 3 other major members of the committee continue to stand by the original report.

Richard Goldstone är en respekterad sydafrikansk domare med gedigna meriter. Bland annat som åklagare mot krigsförbrytelser i Ruwanda och på Balkan. Nu står han mitt i stormen som ansvarig för Goldstone-rapporten. Rapporten, som Goldstone gjort för FN:s organ för mänskliga rättigheter, är en redogörelse för krigsförbrytelser under kriget i Gaza förra vintern. Goldstone anklagar både Hamas och Israel för krigsförbrytelser. Den starkaste kritiken riktas mot Israel och rapporten har fördömts i mycket hårda ordalag av den israeliska regeringen. En hel del av kritiken riktas mot Goldstones person; Han är själv jude och sionist vilket framkallat starka känslor i Israelvänliga kretsar. Richard Goldstone intervjuades av Tomas Ramberg.
