Norman Finkelstein vs Martin Indyk over Gaza and the "Peace Process" 1/8/09 Democracy Now 2 of 4

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLGlEOuhQ5A for part 3
The Israeli assault on Gaza is entering its thirteenth day. Some 700 Palestinians have been killed, with many thousands more wounded, and a humanitarian crisis is mounting. Ten Israelis have died, four by friendly fire. A ceasefire has not been reached, and the offensive continues. We host a debate between Martin Indyk, the former US ambassador to Israel and Assistant Secretary of State for Near East Affairs during the Clinton administration, director of the Saban Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution and author of, Innocent Abroad: An Intimate Account of American Peace Diplomacy in the Middle East, and Norman Finkelstein, author of several books, including The Holocaust Industry, Image and Reality of the Israel-Palestine Conflict and Beyond Chutzpah.

Finkelstein is a machine, he just states fact after fact with names dates and exact quotes with out even breaking a sweat.

No one can touch this guy.

Indyk is a tool. Almost everything he says is completely opposite.

If Israel did not have the United States to lean on for support, the other countries would get them and slap them around. Israel is using there ties to the United States to be bullies because we are backing them in anything that they do out of loyalty to our main faith.

everyone get the unholy books out and the amount of nonsense will make you ask why the warmongering governments are promoting these divisive cults

@sk12309 have you not heard of noam chomsky

@slimithy12 Indyk would not be capable of debating Finkelstein even if he'd had three uninterrupted months to prepare for it. Finkelstein is clearly his intellectual superior, and he simply knows much more than Indyk.

@kevinherbert LOL - Oh you gotta love Kevin. He really knows how to keep a debate on the boil!

[kevinherbert]

@moovershaker : beautifully rebutted...you could be advising Indyk in no time at all at this rate....bigot

[moovershaker]

@kevinherbert Kevin - your comment is not only incorrect, but also completely irrelevant. Pure & simple!
