tolerance and then me speak for two hours and therefore i have an obligation to let people have their say no i'm saying things which deeply upset many people in the audience if they controlled themselves for two hours and showed me their respect and i have an obligation to let them lead out their feelings and thoughts and complain about immediately get this done i don't want to be i don't want to use the media i don't like expressions like that i don't want to success which is based on ruthlessness a success that's based on. the victory of scoundrels and no right to copy at the end hynix you know said arthur fine is profiting from the holocaust just like the industry that you criticize and using the memory of his parents to profit off as if it was when you think about him well. it's

a strange way to profit to lose your job and be thrown into exile in the place where you have don't want to be after fifty years of living in new york it's an odd sort of profiteering end up living in chicago and. losing my job i can say i was a happy household my mother she always tries to derive lessons from what she experienced she was always analyzing what happened she thought you know in the cans you saw the secret of human nature. there was another disco song which you all know i will survive and i will survive is about no one man whose boyfriend you know sarah lives there and she said i'm not some violence my mother love this song she didn't know the lyrics she just knew the refrain and the

rest frame for her was the war so. players. last night i spent seven hours several unpleasant always reading and rereading their paper presented by dr finkelstein and i found it disturbing in a way which is not easy for me. the paper is suffused with press and hatred and i strongly hope that when the proceedings of this conference

are printed that such parts of this paper will not be included in them. dr finkelstein to speak we have an expression in english the truth is often deter pill to swallow we are supposed to be seriously examining history but you mention a few words about jewish collaborators and people get so upset this is i'm sorry to say it's a form of emotional blackmail he says hamas is not recognized by the united states because i must won't recognize israel the logical question is can you name a single israeli government official political party which has ever recognized

a palestinian state with then its internationally legal borders. who are you are more wrong ok how about international law where of course you agree with that they say. occupied palestinian territories the whole of the west bank and gaza you agree with the court no the point is just like me with the song in this you know very well this is a. decision with before buying fall the necessity to implement do you agree with their opinion. do you agree with their opinion.

was. it was kind of argument which i think as a certain amount of credibility as the argument that there was a look at this is so so are going to go something like this i'll start as a special meaning for a jew graph from a biblical in our interview for a point of view of the history of the jewish. palestine has a special resonance for the insurer. to imagine i'd sure stay in argentina you know in uganda or elsewhere simply the work of the

jewish people who made no sense i'm bashing the jewish state out star made sense for his jewish. we're talking to professor alan dershowitz he's author of a new book it's called to be the case for israel and debate with norman finkelstein among his books the holocaust industry and n.h. and reality and the israel palestine conflict now one thousand nine hundred ninety four one joan peters published a book called from time immemorial the book was universally recognized by serious scholars to be a fraud. without wanting to toot my own horn a mildly recognized as the person who exposed to freud i know that book inside out i read it at least four times and i went through all eighteen hundred fifty four footnotes. i started to read your book mr dershowitz. i then came to chapter

one footnotes ten foot no the left and footnote twelve footnote thirteen footnote fourteen footnote fifteen footnotes sixteen all of the quotes are from joan peters they are so from joan peters but you have a long quote here from mark twain pages twenty three to twenty four i turned to joan peters page one fifty nine to sixty the identical quote from twain with with the a lip sees is in the. is the twain quote romance the olympics he went there a financer about that the king of the ellipse sees in the same places the identical quote from twain with the ellipses in the same places it's been widely then read here really has stood mr dershowitz i don't what's your point is i think is that correct let us finish now there's a way i want to ask you guys have is it a direct is it an accurate quote of twain that are very clear it will never fully

age or isn't marked exactly excepts not exactly a site mark twain and not shown peter's i'm a professor sir i know what plagiarism is. is a huge issue expression for my. mother means to a writer to use a month or two to dust. if there she was this book made of course i wouldn't even use it as a schmuck. in the rate you did maybe to challenge my positions he accused me of plagiarism his charge was that because i used quotations from mark twain for example which he says i originally found. in. a woman named peter's book i had to cite the mark twain quotation not to mark twain himself which is of course

what you're supposed to do according to the chicago manual and all other standard manuals but i was obliged to cite it to the peters book and facts cited peter's a times in fact i didn't find the mark twain quote in the peter's book soon as he accused me of plagiarism i went to harvard university and i said there's been this accusation i insist that you investigated please put an investigator on it they put their pocket former president of harvard with whom i had not had particularly good relations over the years and derek bell came to the conclusion that there was absolutely no basis for any plagiarism.

you're listening to worldview from chicago public radio and we've been talking today with norman finkelstein assistant professor of political science at the paul finkelstein it's always had a controversial ads but the controversy never ends in his conflict with harvard's alan dershowitz it began in a democracy now radio program several years ago when he alleged that dershowitz his book the case for israel was plagiarized more recently dershowitz is not one campaign against illegal students can you get all the president of all university has info about the middle of this month to the side and that was dr finkelstein he's a pastor at the paul university who might get his tenure on tuesday if the university allows and but how can people like this be changing our children in the class of us thanks for joining us i'm going to start off by asking where things your a ten year old. had you become too hot for american academia the american

association of university professors has been watching. the demise of the american higher education of the ministrations. you know how to get rid of my memory. i think. now my. way. things. the flow university in my so. i settled that

this is the whole universe the state. today we are free to the resolution of our dispute with professor finkelstein. as a part of that resolution he has agreed to resign effective immediately. professor finkelstein is a prolific scholar and an outstanding teacher at the university thanks jim thank you thank you thank you the university thanks him for his contributions and his service.

i know a great deal about the finkelstein tenure case because the paul asked me to write a letter on finkelstein which i did and then i followed the case very closely from start to finish and i think this is an open and shut case i think that finkelstein should have ten year he's not a teacher he's a propagandist he's not a scholar he simply writes screeds the scandal was that poll university ever appointed him in the first place they appointed him because hard left professors who didn't care at all about his lack of scholarship just like his ideological. radicalism and lowered the standards to appoint him so it was a good decision to deploy university and it was a good decision for academic standards in general what he expects the shorts was going to hear cases dershowitz of being a liar and a plagiarist what is he going to expect but just what's to keep quiet then we know

all the kind of connections the dershowitz has in the united states so why don't you tell it like i'm keeping owning also person wouldn't have done anything right so paul what do you expect right i don't feel it was that he should downplay the issue of plagiarism i didn't think it at first with the news and wouldn't issue the pity so there should it's a plagiarist here's. significant but significant is the material. but it did i thought he would put it in separate or just drop it. thank. you thank

you. my view most of this talk about civility is a red herring when you consider that our best universities eagerly recruit in dubai the bull war criminals whether it was colombia that sought out kissinger whether it was george howell which employed kirkpatrick or stand for which now has rumsfeld when you consider that professors in our best universities advocate torture and the automatic destruction of villages after a terrorist attack when you consider all this becomes clear that the question of civility whether one treats his or her critics according to emily post's rules of etiquette. however real the question is is by

comparison a meaningless sideshow or just a transparent pretext for the gnawing a person the right to teach an account of his or her unpopular political beliefs thank you. to the outside world because if it did that wouldn't seem to stop some of. the fighting stopped about one thousand two hundred people killed most of the civilians the map of web allies of the middle east to be drawn in ways that no one expects or . many of those who smile at them. because of the west of since if it did the mistakes of destruction of my.

welcome you and ask that you take a moment of silence to honor the lives of those who died in palestine iraq and lebanon. and that some of you might know that dr norman was born in new york city

lived to a jewish family that survived the nazi camps. but our guest heard stories from his parents of the nazi massacres or the reincarnation of those stories in the streets today. we have a challenge and i know at the end the challenge is to be both principle and reasonable at the same all i've had and if these sound on reasonable you're going to lose the international community that's the one that i'm not i don't think that's the way to win the struggle like that and that you. are better at this very important that we have americans who want to assure that luck or the american people or i guess that but a syrian lights we know when the people knows anything.

on the site. there was. that. was. the place i could have given a rather well of course or can no longer live on struggle and smash the zionist entity and crap life. i don't believe in b. i think it's pointless. i did what i can which is pleased me intelligently about possibilities for change in the u.s. . but it's been tough and then there was one woman you know sort of like the power of. a prayer of a profound thing comes out from the simple person she was lying in bed she's

seventy two years old and i asked her how old are you. and she lives in little shop of. rock concerts that open sewage told me she said i'm twelve years old or twelve years old you're twelve because i look palestine was twelve years old enough to that was the end of life. from twelve years of age and. it was a good learning you remember things like that. after a go harbor. and after the shame not done robbie well by the odd and after the anger a lot of them although there still remains the hope. i'm not. and i know that i can get in a lot of trouble for what i'm about to say. but i

think that there's a lot represents the hope like and i thought of them hezbollah you must and sometimes i think. it's a very good thing and now i'm going to tell you and hezbollah inflicted and hezbollah a huge defeat as you might be at a time this where you have to keep knocking them until a while and you know and you also will doubt about i don't see how they reach their son and. yeah i would. but i just can't seem to get his fame has come from one of his books about the holocaust and other books involved in the palestine conflict. and not the south when you. visited lebanon meeting source can do it for you with various political leaders and some a hezbollah leader there is

a fundamental principle people have the right to defend their country from foreign occupiers and people have the right to defend their country from invaders who are destroying their country and that to me is a very very sick i remember three and uncomplicated question. look he's not in the same class as bala in a. position to lob missiles and all that as well like the third of the country and habits of all. he's not a clear and present danger in the way that hamas is the what's he like him and naples of terrorism. people who are creating a climate. incremental in which. israel's legitimacy is no longer considered axiomatic in which violence against civilians is

no longer axiomatic. it's more more of a qualitatively more then the usual this can and

a birth in the fields with the world. i see a. radical is unfair and therefore a half to be radically changed other people who think it's warm but the night when these are not radical in. the world go you know who you choose through whose eye is. through who is are you is you choose to see the world. this is radically unfair. and it requires a radical change. the. way.
