	A Jewish critique of the excesses and manipulations of the zionist propaganda industry (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Norman G. Finkelstein, himself a Jew and a child of survivors of the Warsaw Ghetto (a Jewish area of Warsaw besieged and destroyed by the Nazis), is an established Jewish critic of Israel?s aggression and an authority on contemporary Jewish affairs.
		Finkelstein in blunt: the authors of the holocaust industry, he says, are interested not in remembering the dead but in exploiting them, and their actions are not a tribute to them but an abuse of them.
		Finkelstein begins by pointing out that the Nazi persecution of the Jews is in fact historically neutral; it can just as well be used to criticise Israel and to support it, and the fact that it is used to support the zionist state is a deliberate strategy.

	Book Review -- Image and Reality of the Israel-Palestine Conflict (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Finkelstein writes that in the spring of 1982 he was drawn into research on the topic of Zionism when work on his dissertation coincided with the outbreak of the Israeli invasion of Lebanon.
		Finkelstein uses Morris's invaluable data to demonstrate that the Israeli historian's repeated attempts at mitigating Israeli responsibility for the Palestinian exodus cannot be supported by the documentary record.
		Finkelstein objects to Morris's exculpatory formulation, that the Palestinian refugees were "born of war, not design." Instead, Finkelstein argues, the expulsions were the result of a long-standing Zionist desire to create a Jewish majority in Palestine and that when war came, organized planning to remove the Arabs was well developed.

	Real History and The Holocaust Industry
		What Finkelstein calls "The Holocaust" -- the packaged story as distinguished from the actual historical events -- has become a "prize alibi" for Israeli war crimes, a cudgel for money-hungry Jewish organizations and profiteering lawyers, and a spark plug for the recrudescent ranks of anti-Semites in Europe.
		Finkelstein angrily denounces these payments as part of the "Holocaust-restitution racket." The Swiss, he says, were "easy prey.
		One wishes, in reading this slender, incendiary volume, that Finkelstein had tempered his justified anger at those who would cash in on the Holocaust with the acknowledgment that reparations are for many Jews a crude marker of their suffering and a repudiation of the Nazi past.

	Real History and Norman Finkelstein
		Norman Finkelstein's The Holocaust Industry "is brimming with the same indifference to historical facts, inner contradictions, strident politics and dubious contextualizations; and it oozes with the same smug sense of moral and intellectual superiority" as the current media hype over the Holocaust.
		But what really interests Finkelstein is "The Holocaust." The gist of his argument is simple: Had the Jews and the Zionists not had the Holocaust already, they would have had to invent it.
		It is filled with precisely the kind of shrill hyperbole that Finkelstein rightly deplores in much of the current media hype over the Holocaust; it is brimming with the same indifference to historical facts, inner contradictions, strident politics and dubious contextualizations; and it oozes with the same smug sense of moral and intellectual superiority.

		Whereas Finkelstein first got mostly negative and later mostly positive reviews in major European newspapers and magazines, and was given various opportunities to debate his adversaries, here he hardly got any reviews (in spite of the 250 review copies he helped his small publisher mail out to critics).
		Finkelstein's theory that the memory of the Nazi Holocaust is being abused for political, moral and financial flmail could only spring from a deep-rooted anti-Zionism and/or his own personal psychological problems, most American intellectuals silently seem to agree.
		Finkelstein, educated at Princeton and in Paris but now teaching his "comrades-students" about Marxism and Nazism as an adjunct political science professor at Hunter College in New York, is used to being trashed.

		Third, I am presuming that Norman Finkelstein will agree with me that Nazism did manifest a high degree of irrationality, not only in its attempt at Judaeocide but also in its declaration of war on three fronts against three great powers, aimed at the preposterous fantasy of Aryan world domination.
		Finkelstein appears to think that any criticism of that stupidity would only indicate severe moral decrepitude in the person making it.
		Finkelstein’s essay begins with a lugubrious self-interrogation about his own "Marxism", and his staunch unwillingness to repudiate it lest he be suspected, even by himself, of "selling out".

		How Norman Finkelstein must have groaned when he read the words of Hadassah Lieberman, wife of the Democratic vice presidential nominee, as she addressed a crowd of Democratic Party supporters at the War Memorial in Tennessee earlier this month.
		For Finkelstein, such cavalier inaccuracies and holier-than-thou allusions are classic outgrowths of a phenomenon that has transformed the Nazi atrocities against the Jews of Europe into a largely American-driven myth designed to serve the narrow interests of homegrown Jewish elites.
		Other Finkelstein generalizations are as absurd as they are sweeping, and do a great disservice to the serious and enlightening scholarship that has been produced by Holocaust writers over the past 40 years.

		Finkelstein's book will be difficult for readers who have not closely followed the history of Palestine and Israel, the political history of the United States, and the emergence of Jews into the mainstream culture of the U.S. since World War II.
		Finkelstein is concerned that the industry may be increasing anti-semitism by behaving in such a way as to confirm stereotypes of Jews as being greedy liar lawyers.
		Finkelstein's work is beloved in Holocaust denial circles where it's described as "courageous." Like all bigots--and in the same vein as several of his cheerleaders here--the author is quick to deny his cowardly intentions.

	A Jewish critique of the excesses and manipulations of the zionist propaganda industry
		Finkelstein also points out that many of those running the campaigns — both Jewish individuals and institutions — are in fact getting rich on the money they are supposedly claiming on behalf of holocaust survivors; his title refers to the fact that both the Swiss and the survivors were "shaken down".
		Even Finkelstein and others like him are routinely attacked as being ‘self-hating’ Jews, and the fact that papers such as Crescent quote him will no doubt also be used against him in future.
		Writers such as Finkelstein, for reminding the world that there are Jews who recognise their co-religionists’ sins, may be attacked today; but when Jews look back and recognise zionism as yet another disastrous episode in their history, they will be grateful that they can point also to Jews such as Norman G. Finkelstein.

		The gravamen of Finkelstein's argument, which is shared by an increasing number of Jews and others worldwide, is that "the current campaign of the Holocaust Industry to extort money from Europe in the name of 'needy Holocaust victims' has shrunk the moral status of martyrdom to that of a Monte Carlo casino" (p.
		Finkelstein notes that the threat of indiscriminate, ad hominem slanders for alleged anti-Semitism has long been an effective deterrent to the public discussion of Holocaust Industry issues, which may help to explain the lack of a robust economic literature in this area.

		Norman Finkelstein demands that the Holocaust be treated as a "rational subject of inquiry," as if the slaughter of millions of Jews and other innocents -- a slaughter conceived and carried out with terrifying efficiency and obvious relish by a purportedly civilized nation -- is itself somehow "rational."
		Instead of "enlightening" the public about various aspects of the Holocaust, Finkelstein has only aided anti-Semites across the globe in their quest for total denial in what was one of the worst tragedies ever to take place in modern history.
		Both Salon and Finkelstein might be interested to know that he has a predecessor who, among other things, delineated the principles of Holocaust literature and Holocaust studies, advanced a theory of self-perpetuating and self-serving Holocaust handwringing, and pointed out some of the flaws in our mass adoration of Elie Wiesel.
