[TheHobbgobblin]

thanks for sharing, good to see Dr. Finkelstein speak and the ideas he shares about Ghandi...but they need something to shake things up...

[musspuss]

love this guy

@bramy

You are probably a raving zionist?

And you are also an American Muslim-hater?

And you have never been in the Middle East beside Israel?

[anarchosolar]

Why is it none of these Left Celebs will talk about the Americas Holocaust ? The extermination of the peoples of the continent of America IS totally appropriate for OCCUPY but still despite NF having read Stannard's AMERICAN HOLOCAUST he continues to conform to American centric

denialist restrictions just like his opponents in the ADL/JDL/AIPAC etc do.

[dwgthed]

@anarchosolar Watch the Dunbar-Ortiz video. She does talk about the extermination of the indigenous.

[tstruss912]

@anarchosolar Chomsky talks about it all the time. He even gives quotes from the founders on it, both moral and immoral ones.

[anarchosolar]

He could put fireworks to sleep !! He is getting lamer and lamer.

[musspuss]

@anarchosolar Like your dick

[Brammy007a]

Tremendous scholar??? Is that why "He has been fired from numerous positions for his substandard scholarship and fondness for conspiracy theories."? ........ antisemitic nazi loving kook is more like it.

[m10eko]

@Brammy007a

i really can't stand people like you. is that the best card you can play as soon as you feel threatened? he's a nazi and antisemetic! for god's sake all this man wants is peace, and for the violence upon innocent palestinean's to stop!

[Brammy007a]

@m10eko Eat shit and go find out what this asshole is all about. He's a holocaust denier and rampant antisemite. Go do your homework, dingbat..

[trilobright]

@Brammy007a

Uh, you heard that he's Jewish himself, right?

[Brammy007a]

@trilobright So bloody what???? Look at his writings and statements..... (you do know how to read, dont you?)

[TheHarlequin13]

@Brammy007a I think you're the one who should look at his writings and statements if you think he's a Holocaust denier and anti-semite. He has never denied the holocaust and those Jews he shows scorn for are those who've used the Holocaust for their own ends, be it financial or ideological.

[trilobright]

@Brammy007a

I've read the Holocaust Industry as well as numerous articles he's written, seen more than one documentary try and fail at making him look like a nutter, and plan to read his new book as soon as the price comes down on Amazon. What writings and statements are you referring to, exactly? He offers sound, reasonable arguments in favor of the Palestinian people and against the Nazi holocaust being used as carte blanch for all of Israel's atrocities. Crazy, I know.

[m10eko]

@Brammy007a

LAWL! you should do your research, not once in any of his books does he deny the holocaust, the fact some "deniers" associated with him and referenced him doesn't mean he thinks it didn't happen. provide me with some evidence, besides what that ANTI-SEMITE dershowitz said. Your definition of a semite is wrong, most jew/israelis aren't semites while the arabs are. The fact Israelis are killing innocent CIVILIANS by way of illegal methods means that jews are anti-semites

[almomena]

@m10eko you are so right, his parents are holocaust survivors. the man is against wars full stop. he is a pure human only devoted to humanity against evil regardless of source.

[m10eko]

@almomena

only if there were more people like him. too many innocent kids are getting killed in palestine :(

[tstruss912]

@Brammy007a Why do you love hate so much?

[Brammy007a]

@tstruss912 grow up, will you please?

[tstruss912]

@Brammy007a By "grow up" do you mean become somebody who hates the "other side"? No, no I won't do that. If that is your version of growing up then you need to find a fountain of youth, and quick!

[Brammy007a]

@tstruss912 bla bla bla.... take a hike

[tstruss912]

@Brammy007a Thanks. I love hiking!

[TheHarlequin13]

@Brammy007a DePaul University referred to him as "a prolific scholar and an outstanding teacher" after denying him tenure. He was only denied tenure after Alan Dershowitz launched a campaign against him after Finkelstein destroyed his shit house of a book.

[cygil1]

Norman isn't a great public speaker. Tremendous scholar, but a poor speaker, I'm afraid.

[znikacz]

@cygil1 I couldn't disagree more. I think he's sharp, incredibly eloquent and witty. That makes a hell of a public speaker.

[MenOfLetters]

A great man Finkelstein.

[Zatzzo]

allan nairn probably

[theroux2404]

Nairn?

[RSFO]

What people with political insight on "one hand" did he speak of? Alan who? I simply can't hear what he says.

[bfoaliali]

the guy at the beginning scared me, anyways, good for Finkelstein.
