In 2008, Professor Norman Finkelstein, who comes from a family deeply impacted by the Holocaust, was deeply outraged by what he saw as feigned sorrow or "crocodile tears" from a student at Case Western University in Cleveland, Ohio. Finkelstein's father was an Auschwitz survivor, while his mother survived the Warsaw Ghetto and Majdanek concentration camp. Having experienced significant loss within his family during the Nazi Holocaust, he was infuriated when confronted by a Jewish student questioning his pro-Palestinian stance. He said: "I don't respect the crocodile tears - if you had any heart in you, you would be crying for the Palestinians.

Unfortunately the wikipedia description of the holocaust seems to be inaccurate to me: Although im not an expert, i belive the holocaust was not only against the jews, but more like against Hitler's description of the jews. So if someone dont consider themself a jew, or is not considered to be a jew according to the rules of judaism, they might still be considered to be a jew by Hitler, and got murdered. So im not sure the wiki excerpt is very accurate in this form, also i have serious doubt about the integrity of this description which leave out the other murdered innocents who were not jews at all. So all this revolves around who we consider to be a jew. Also if we consider everyone to be a jew who were systematically murdered by the nazis, then we kinda accept and utilize Hitler's description. Im not sure if that is a good idea, and im personally against it. I wouldnt want to give Hitler the authority to decide who is a jew. Also correct me if im wrong.

I remeber when Norman Finkelstein was the lone voice talking about the weaponization of the Holocaust memory way back in the 90s.

Events of past few months have left little doubt that there are two different factions of Zayo NOT-Z: Those who are denying the Palestinian Hollowcost and those who are insisting to carry on with a Palestinian Hollowcost *Rest* *in* *Power* *Aaron* *Bushnell* I will never forget you and your last words of " *Free* *Palestine* "

Netanyahu's right wing extremist govt is what's causing people to form a negative opinion of Jewish people. So I really love the Jewish people who are standing for liberty, justice, and equality for all.

Yeah but there are few and far between.

We’re very proud of these Americana students because not only they’re Americans but also they have a better life living than the Palestinians and they know that what is happening in Palestine 🇵🇸 is not correct !

My question for Israeli govt supporters, just because you CAN say antisemitism and do crimes with a green light, SHOULD you?

Thank you Prof. Omer.

We need more and more of this Journalism. Thank you Amy, I always check in with you for headlines and more indepth reporting. Keep up the work.

Thank you for your courage. It would be wonderful if one an American president will speak up with this conviction.

What an excellent and important distinction between anti-semitism and anti-zionism

I was at Columbia very peaceful ❤

Hats off to professor Omer Bartov.

This interview is very important, there is so much prejudice and misinformation on this topic also in Europe...

U.S is Democratic and the Earth is Flat.

Free palestine people and land

Thank you Professor for discussing the importance of pro Palestinian protests on American universities campuses , in US democracy!

The right to freedom of assembly and association is enshrined in several international human rights instruments, including: 1. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), Article 20: "Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association." 2. The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), Article 21: "The right of peaceful assembly shall be recognized. No restrictions may be placed on the exercise of this right other than those imposed in conformity with the law and which are necessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security or public safety, public order (ordre public), the protection of public health or morals or the protection of the rights and freedoms of others." Besides, divesting from an Apartheid state in not unreasonable demand.

Thank you! Yes a forced silence which we have been under in America for decades!

Instead of asking pro-Palestinians to condemn Hamas, do an experiment and ask them the following question: "If Israel could eliminate Hamas without harming women and children, would you support that?" You will be surprised by the answer.

Why would anyone support the annihilation of the freedom fighters? Did you support annihilation of South African freedom fighters? Did you wish death upon Nelson Mandela?

Historical protest by students

For 7 millions Jews living in Israel, that don't have academic degree in Holocausts and American citizenship, Anti-Zionizm is Anti-Semitism. The Jewish students at american campuses have a reason to fear for their life when they hear chanting "Free Palestine" and "Globalize Intifada", prior to 1933 Jews felt very secure in Germany, they were also sitting on the loan with their German peers and discussing authenticity of "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" but then came Holocaust.

I went to University of California, Santa Barbara from 1969 to 1973. Two weeks before I arrived, a bomb in the faculty lounge murdered a janitor. I ended the first year under martial law. I grew to hate the student demonstrators: Petty (and not so petty violence) against students, the closing of classrooms (and minds), many of the students were profoundly ignorant and really didn't belong at the U.C. Lots of vapid Valley girls here on Daddy's money and many stoner guys just hiding out from the draft with no interest in being educated to an Open Mind. (Yeah! Go Boomers! Yeah!) And yet the 60's demonstrations were correct. The Vietnam War needed to end and the fools in Washington (who I also grew to hate) were never going to admit a mistake as long as they could draft the non-rich to be sent off to the jungle. I can make an argument that trying to save the criminals in Saigon from themselves was worth the lives of a few hundred military professionals (that's what a professional military officer class does for an Empire) but there is no argument for the deaths of 50,000+ mostly unwilling, mostly men. So where am I: 1. I believe in all of the First Amendment. Loud and Vocal Protest, Yes! Physical Occupation No! (This is enforced by low level unreported violence against real students.) 2. I loathe the Soy Boys and the Whining Princess Girls. "What??? You mean there is no catering truck coming???" "You're hurting ME!!! You hurting ME!!!" Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes. 3. The Proud Boys did outstanding work in Portland a few years ago. I wish they were back. 4. No one who matters has ever been serious about a real two state solution. The geography seems to require a "Polish Corridor" as a part of a real solution and no leader (on either side) can agree to that and stay in power. 5. Hamas on 10/07 committed war crimes. 6. Israel, at some point in its retaliation, starting committing war crimes. Israel is also murdering civilians. 7. The US government is totally ineffective. With the elections coming up, Biden can't offend the Muslim voters in key battleground states. And he can't offend Jewish money and media support also need to win the election. Shipping weapons to Israel is great for the Industrial Military Complex. American colleges shovel propaganda to lumpen-proletariat. My slogan is: Expropriate Ivy League Endowments! 8. I will give Biden credit. I thought his response a few days ago on the right to protest vs unlawful occupation was spot on. His best speech ever --- Seemed to be in his own words and he seemed to be genuinely engaged. He may be a Stopped Clock, but he can be right be twice a day. 9. Trump is useless. I don't think that he would do any better at this crisis if he was in office than Biden. Yet every day this goes on, he gains 10.000+ votes and most importantly this is defusing the impact of the clown show that was J6. (Free All J6 Political Prisoners!) 10. I live in California so I can't imagine Trump winning any state, but I now think he is likely to win in November, particularly if there is violence surrounding the Big D convention. It is going to be a howl watching the mainstream media try NOT to report on any violence. 11. No one will be expelled for this. No one will be suspended for this. No one will be required to take up missed finals. All seniors will graduate. Anyone who opposed this penny ante-violence will be subjected to academic guerilla warfare. I use to watch the MSM news a lot. Now I almost never see it as the news programs bear no relationship to any reality I observe. So, the 60's protestors were right but wrong OR wrong but right depending on your fundamental point of view. The same with our current college protests.

All this time we've been propping up a little Soviet Union in the middle east, and most of us didn't even know it.

The Truth shall set you Free Justice and Freedom for ALL

There should be a memorial to be built in New York for the Palestinian

Stop insulting people who perished in holocaust .It is outrageous when you have members of your family who have been tortured and killed in those concentration camps. NEVER AGAIN TO ANY LIVING BEING.
