      The girl from the famous Finkelstein "crocodile tears" Q&A clip did it

        God what a great moment. So thankful he could retain a calm enough head to pull that off with the tact he did.

          I looked it up and it has the energy of a mirror world version of one of those "sjw owned" videos

            I can see why conservatives like those videos. The raw emotions when someone gets dunked on are pretty good to absorb. The difference is that the “sjw” rarely exists outside the internet and some rich kid college whereas the Zionist and annoying European are real and everywhere in the west

        I hope not to divert the discussion, but I have a question. I haven't really explored Finkelstein's work. Is he considered worthwhile? What are your thoughts?

          Personally I know of no better authority on Isn’trael-Palestine. He dedicated almost all of his decades of scholarship to it.

          Gaza: An Inquest Into its Martyrdom is hands down the best book on the siege on Gaza - one of the best non-fiction books I've read period.

          he's really an excellent writer, and it's exhaustively sourced. I read it years ago and I still regularly cite it, it's like the Bible for this 'conflict'.

          The Holocaust Industry is another great one - he writes about the weaponization of the Holocaust and of anti-semitism.
