The holocaust was one of the worst crimes against humanity ever perpetrated: millions of innocent human beings, mostly Jews, were killed by the Nazis in concentration camps all over Europe. After the war, many Jewish survivors yearned for a homeland in which they could live without fear or discrimination. This wish culminated in the founding of the state of Israel in Palestine. However, rather than having learned from the unimaginable suffering of the camps - and as a result treating fellow human beings with exemplary compassion and tolerance - the Israeli government behaves in an inhumane way when it comes to the rights of the Palestinians on whose land Israel rests. Norman Finkelstein, a Jew, who himself lost many family members in the Nazi concentration camps argues in his book "The Holocaust Industry" that Israel is using the shoah as a cover for its massive human rights abuses; always expecting the world to show compassion and indulgence with the "poor Jews". This is an insult to the memory of all those who perished in the pogroms and is causing untold human suffering to the Palestinian people, thereby destabilizing the whole Middle East.

  • What a great man.

    Jews will be proud of him in near future.

  • @Logia1978 or (as jews like myself) we're proud of him RIGHT NOW. but i know what you mean logia. and in case folks are interested, the book (fraud) they're referencing in the beginning of the clip is the Peters book "From Time Immemorial." and this vid is taken from a doc on mr. finkelstein titled "The Trials Of Norman Finkelstein." he's a hero.

  • Norman is one of my best Jews I love him

  • God Bless Norman

  • Norman the LIONHEART

  • Great Speak at the End!! :D

    FREE PALESTINE ,DEATH TO ZIONISM!!

  • The ordinary jewish people are not to blame for what the zionist movement has created...I feel sorry for those who have compassion enough to see it for what it is, yet get caught up in the worlds new dislike of them because of what zionism has brought to their culture.

  • @Logia1978 i agree. they will be proud of him when more brave jews come out and speak out against radical zionism and their propaganda that has labeled all jews conspirators to these crimes israel commits in their name. I know when i was in college, more and more jews were protesting against the israeli crimes! Good for them! they are brothers with all faiths and races in the same cause- justice, wherever it needs to be spoken on!

  • @thedwork here here... thank you! Good for you ! another brave person from the jewish community speaking out against propaganda against zionist propaganda or israeli propaganda... it is amazing their arrangements dont have a leg to stand on but they have been very successful to propagate such madness. Good for you brother!

  • It's so funny to watch that dumb little bitch cry because she hates hearing truths being spoken and can't stand another human having the freedom to speak his mind.
