Alan Dershowitz called Richard Goldstone “an evil, evil man” and a “traitor to the Jewish people.”

The prominent lawyer and political commentator slammed Goldstone and the report he oversaw for the United Nations in an interview Sunday with Israel’s Army Radio.

Dershowitz wrote a detailed rebuttal of the Goldstone report called The Case Against Goldstone Report: Study in Evidentiary Bias.

Dershowitz and Goldstone had been close friends and colleagues for many years, according to Haaretz, until the release last year of the Goldstone report.
