Recently, we featured the documentary American Radical: The Trials of Norman Finkelstein, a documentary about scholar and professor Norman Finkelstein's struggles with the larger intellectual community--and the U.S.'s Israel policy.
Finkelstein joins us in studio today to talk about the film, the current state of U.S./Israel relations, and his new book. Published by OR Books, This Time We Went Too Far explores the possibility that the December 2008 invasion of Gaza has caused a significant shift in the international community--including the American Jewish community--opinion of Israel.
Yes…
We got our first Black President, They want him to fail
They say if you ain’t Conservative, You going to Hell,
But my God don’t play no Politics
If he had to vote I bet it’d be Obama b*tch!
Ya’ll fools more dumb than Potsie
How you gonna call a Black Man a Nazi
Those are some lyrics, now check out the video for

Finkelstein is trying to make a life through unscrupulous manipulation of the mass media. On his internet page, there are many example of this. I want to point out an example of two side by side photographs that show a Nazi soldier and an Israeli soldier. The picture on the left shows a German soldier aiming but no target. On the right there is a picture of an Israeli soldier that appears to be aiming at something. The picture of the Israeli seams to show more of a soldier that is surveying the place looking, for dangers. I don’t know what is the target of the Israeli soldier, that is, if there is any at all, however, I do know the target of the German in the picture on the left. The picture is taken in Russia, maybe Belorussia, and the German soldier is actually aiming at a woman 3 meters away from him, who is also holding her child. Unfortunately, this picture captures the last seconds of this woman’s life after which, she is shot and her baby killed as well, who she was trying to protect. Her body language is a horrible example of misery and because of this, ever since and every time I see this picture, my heart is broken by the terrible fate this woman and her child faced. I do not complain about the fact that there are Idiots in this world, but I do complain about the trickery of Mr. Finkelstein, and his shameful and horrible tactics which he uses to bend the truth to his will. He should be ashamed that he manipulated these last moments of this woman’s life in order to achieve the effect that he desired.
