New interview with Norman Finkelstein

The radical gadfly, Norman Finkelstein, was interviewed extensively the other day for a surprising venue: the centrist Jewish online magazine Tablet.  It's a long piece, but worth a look.

Finkelstein tends to be an absolutist rather than a detached scholar, but it was wrong for Prof. Alan Dershowitz to hound him, even supporting his ouster from DePaul University.  Hopefully, DePaul decided his case for tenure on his merits alone.
