Finkelstein says NO to Crocodile Tears
(I just saw this on Gilad's blog and it's too good to pass)
Note: the full movie can be downloaded from the Pirate Bay here: http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/5247499/American_Radical___The_Trials_Of_Norman_Finkelstein_-_AVI_-_GCJM
It is worth noting that unlike some pseudo-progressives or anarcho-capitalists, the producers of this movie are not threatening lawsuits about the so-called "illegal" downloads of their movie. Instead, they posted this message on The Pirate Bay:
I can only urge everybody to either purchase this movie (even after seeing the torrented download) or send these folks a donation. These guys deserve our support and they need the $$$ to contine to make good movies. Let's give them a hand!

Hello torrenters. I'm the owner of the film production company that released this film.
We're a tiny operation of four employees working out of a hole in the wall in Seattle. In this current economy, we're really fighting hard just to stay afloat - even big companies like Miramax are dying.
If you want us to be able to continue to deliver quality and controversial films like this one, we have to be able to make enough to survive.
Please consider buying this film:

(As you can see, we can't even afford to hire a web designer.)

US political author Norman Finkelstein denied entry to Israel
Jerusalem - The US political author and critic of Israel Norman Finkelstein was denied entry to the Jewish state on Friday, his lawyer said.
Finkelstein landed at Ben Gurion international airport near Tel Aviv in the early morning and was told by a representative of the ministry of interior that he would not be allowed into the country on 'security' grounds, attorney Michael Sfard told dpa.
'This usually means a 10-year ban on entry,' Sfard added.
Finkelstein, who is Jewish and the son of Holocaust survivors, has written critical books on Israeli policies in the Palestinian territories and on what he called 'exploitation' of the Jewish tragedy during World War II.
Finkelstein has received with the fierce disapproval of some authors and academics, while others have praised his controversial works.

Absolutely amazing interview with Norman Finkelstein
I just came across this interview with Norman Finkelstein. While it is already 2 years old, it is even *more* relevant, I would even say more prophetic, today.
I got to give that to Finkelstein: he has got tremendous courage and integrity. He should be an example to all of us.
I should mention here that the TV station Finkelstein is being interviewed by is Hariri's "Future TV" (the one which was torched by the opposition last week). This is what Finkelstein is referring to when he says that "you" want to "live like slaves". He does not mean the reporter or the Lebanese people, but the Three Stooges and their supporters.
Enjoy this amazing interview:
