Goliath: Life and Loathing in Greater Israel is a 2013 book by Max Blumenthal. It examines what Blumenthal characterizes as Israel's aggressive shift to the far-right and its crackdown on local activism. In the preface Blumenthal says that "Americans' tax dollars and political support are crucial in sustaining the present state of affairs" in Israel. The book received a positive review by Nancy Murray in the academic journal Race & Class calling it "a work of unsettling but scrupulous and courageous truth-telling". It was also positively reviewed in the Journal of Palestine Studies by Steven Salaita who called it "one of the most important titles published on the Israel-Palestine conflict in the past few years".
