Did they dearly dearly love Jimmy Carter in Isreal when he was the President?

Did the Isrealis love an antisemetic president?

Are Chomsky, Finkelstein, and Tony Judt antisematic?

Is every ant, bee, dog, fox, lizard, lice, bacteria, fungi, ameoba antisematic in this world?

WHERE THE HELL IS THE REST OF THIS??????

Great lecture.

[vomitoff]

to attack someone's arguments by questioning his character is the most flawed type of reasoning imaginable. it means youre a cockless piece of shit.

I second that! Like many zionists, Kurtlane is off the wall ... The referent is international law and Israel is culpable on many counts. Moreover, right-wing factions within Israel such as that of "Bibi the Thug" do not want peace and try to grab every bit of palestinian land they can. Meanwhile, their mouthpieces in the US, Canada and Europe scream "holocaust" and "antisemitism" at every turn while the IDF incinerates civilians. The BS is sickening and mindboggling!

Finkelstein is a scholar and a gentleman. I wish him well and hope he will prevail in the end against the sociopathic prozionist riff raff à la Dershowitz. One speaking the truth usually does ...

[fagbert]

Kurtlane, you ask why he enjoys such support.

Simple: because the facts are all on his side. And this is all that matters.

THE END.

Kurtlane, instead of attacking the man, why don't you talk about his ideas. His lecture, to me, seems pretty straight forward and hard to dispute. Perhaps you can enlighten all of us by discussing the issues.

[Kurtlane]

This is from yahasiff (all the credit to him), and it's so true, it has to be repeated:

"I must admit it is amazing that Finkelstein hasn't received tenure [at DePaul University]. I mean, he hates Israel and he blames the USA for every problem on Earth. What more do they want?? Jeesh."

[Kurtlane]

My hunch is that Finkelstein doesn't hate Zionism at all. He's all pretence, and he's making money and fame. In a weird way, Zionism is feeding him.

"[Finkelstein is] poison, he's a disgusting self-hating Jew, he's something you find under a rock." - Leon Wieseltier

[Kurtlane]

Finkelstein is not irrational, nor is he necessarily hateful. He is like a spokesman for a tobacco company who denies that smoking is harmful because his money and fame depend on it. He has found a pretty niche for himself, a sinecure, where he can make his money and earn prestige among the naive, leftist, and Jew-hating by demonizing his own people or attacking the only Jewish country. And always covers himself with "I am Jewish myself" and "my parents went through Holocaust."

A few more things about Finkelstein:

He is a popular speaker among German neo-Nazis. Ingrid Rimland (wife of Ernst Zuendel) referred to him admiringly as the "Jewish David Irving"

In return, he praised David Irving as "a good historian!" and as having "made an indispensable contribution to our knowledge of World War II."

He has been fired by Brooklyn College, N.Y.U., and several other schools for incompetence, mental instability, and abuse of students.
