Bruce Lee had Enter the Dragon. Finkelstein has what? Rise of the Dink? An endless trailer:
I'm not sure if it's even possible to make Norman Finkelstein look sympathetic. Will the film try? Here's the web site: American Radical.
Listed below are links to blogs that reference this entry: American Radical: Finkelstein Gets His Own Film.

Norman Finkelstein is a poor excuse for a Jew, a Human Being, and is not to be taken seriously. He is a failed professor, never had an academic paper published, and has a thing for Joan Peters, that is over the top. This film shows a very sad, pitiful man, who obviously had issues with his parents growing up, and needs a good shrink. We need to stop giving him a forum to spread his radical lies, and hate, and let him go back to Coney Island, to live, and die, alone.
Speaking of Coney Island, allow me to bring to your attention the 2008 Coney Island Mermaid Parade happening on June 21, 2008.

Last year the celebrities holding court were Adam Savage from Mythbusters as King Neptune and Patti d'Arbanville from Rescue Me as Queen Mermaid.

NORMAN IS AN ORIGINAL FELLOW WHO LIKES TO SAY WHAT IS IN HIS MIND AND HE SHOULD. LIFE IS SHORT AND IT IS BETTER TO SAY WHAT WE FEEL TO BE RIGHT RATHER THAN TO PLAY THE GAME. HIS FACTS ARE CHECKED AND HE IS VERY MUCH IN LINE WITH MAINSTREAM INSRAELI HISTORIANS LIKE MORRIS, BEN-AMI OR SEGEV. THE PROBLEM IS THAT HE IS WRONG IN THINKING THAT
ISRAEL SHOULD BEHAVE MORALLY DIFFERENTLY THAT AMERICANS OR ANY OTHER SATE AT ITS CREATION. STATES ARE BORN OUT OF BLOOD AND TEARS AND SORRY IF PALESTINIANS SHOULD SUFFER BUT ISRAEL HAS THE RIGHT TO BE CREATED AND BELIEVE IN ITS ZIONIST DREAM LIKE AMERICANS BELIEVED ONCE IN THEIR MANIFEST DESTINY. IT MIGHT BE MORALLY QUESTIONABLE BUT IN REALITY JEWS ARE NOT WORSE OR BETTER THAN ANY OTHER PEOPLE. WE WANT OUR STATE AND WE WILL FIGHT FOR IT. WE DON'T MAKE OMELETTES WITHOUT BREAKING EGGS..
Unlike a lot of other radical poseurs- Norman has actually altered the terms of the debate on Israel/Palestine. It used to be "cycle of violence"...now, it's all about Israel's Occupation. The jews who hate him are essentially rodefs, neurotic chain-link fence jews who interpret comments critical of Israel to be attacks on their own burping, scratching, fragile, neurotic little nerd identities. The only jews who still cling to the zionist bullshit are alta cockas and jewish boys whom jewish girls have been vomiting at the sight of since junior high. Israel advocacy is their raison d'etre. It defines them as men, or rather schleps.
Good bless Norman Finkelstein
America needs a hundred more men like him. Men of principle and learning not afraid to speak truth to power. I support him fully.
Professor Norman Finkestein is a highly respected accademic, not because of his views, but rather because of his style of precision and accuracy.
His tools are internationally undisputed, namely, International Law and mainstream human rights organizations.
What makes his strength is that he seldom expresses his own views. In most cases he cites the relevant international law.
Whoever opposes him automatically opposes the rule of law, intentionally or not.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
You funny.
"What makes his strength is that he seldom expresses his own views. In most cases he cites the relevant international law"
I would be grateful for RoL if he/she were to read the interview F. gave in Lebanon and make the case that he was spreaking for international when he defended Hizzballa's aggression against Israel's northern civilians. I shall need the precise law cited, + an analysis of the situation that led to the war.

What qualifies Allyson Taylor to decide who is a "good" Jew and who isn't? Her comments come straight from the Zionist lobby's playbook.
Very mature Allyson.
You are the disgrace. Not Norman.
I hope sensible people will watch the language being used by people like Allyson. See how they show no shame. They have no civility.
They just spew empty bullshit rhetoric. "Such and such is a self-hating Jew." "Such and such is an anti-semite." Etc etc
They never talk about the issues because they wouldn't have a leg to stand on. Pay attention to them. It's not difficult to spot the vapidity of their ideas.
LSD got an "A" from norman finklestein in Brown Nosing.
LSD and the others don't address the fact that their hero "s a failed professor, never had an academic paper published".
"F" PaleSWINE. :-)
