in case you were wondering what norman finkelstein is up to: “U.S. academic Finkelstein meets top Hezbollah official in Lebanon” from haaretz.
apparently, finkelstein was denied tenure at depaul u. largely because of the efforts of dershowitz. facing such calumny, finkelstein was placed on administrative leave for a year before he decided to quit in september 2007: “the atmosphere had become so poisoned that it was virtually impossible for me to carry on at DePaul.” now he’s meeting with Nabil Kaouk, Hizbullah’s commander in south Lebanon. wonder if he’s doing research for a new book? sounds interesting.
