Finkelstein teaches fellow Jews the meaning of the Holocaust and why not to use that horror to justify the actions of Israel today. Dr. Norman G. Finkelstein speaking at the University of Waterloo. Dr. Finkelstein debunks a holocaust card thrown by a Jewish girl, having crocodile tears in her eyes, with a holocaust card of his own but of different nature.
He's right, of course. This kind of thing makes me uncomfortable, because it's basically fighting fire with fire: turning the tables on bullies who try to use emotion to control the discourse and avoid difficult topics. Unfortunately, people like that tend not to listen to reason, so Finkelstein's may be the only way to shut them up. Dr Finkelstein is truly a great man and speaks the truth. We need more warriors like him to stand up for the truth. They're not nuts, Dr. Finkelstein, they're ignorant, brainwashed, and stubbornly unwilling to learn or face the truth. justifying blood with blood is a remedy of destruction for all. Nobody wins in that fool's paradise!
In short, Ha-Shoah should be used to STOP Israel from doing what it's doing to Palestine and Palestinians, NOT the other way around. Misguided people assert that it is necessary for Israel to kill people in order to avoid another Holocaust. Nothing could be more absurd and further from the truth.
