Alan Dershowitz -- Harvard Professor and Best-Selling Author (Sep. 22, 2011) Right and Wrong... Perhaps the most brilliant speech ever heard on the subject! http://www.pjtv.com/?cmd=mpg&mpid=457&load=6057
He is also an exposed Liar, a Plagarist, and a Pigish advocate of Torture & is held in Ridicule, disgust & Opprobrium outside of Zionist circles Dershowitz, Just another Paranoid & Psychopathic War Monger A shallow puddle, a vacant lot, a despicable low order of humanity Contrast Mearsheimer with Dershowitz When I consider controversial topics I really do try and find reasoned arguments from both sides. With regards to the Israel/Palestine conflict it just seems to me that Zionism simply cannot make a reasoned, moral case. But I'm looking to Israel's proponents to try and see if I'm missing something. Alan Dershowitz is a very prominent proponent of Zionism, but I have to say that when I listen to him he never seems to say anything. A lot of cliches. Little substance. But I don't know a lot of others that even try and defend Israel's actions, so I'm stuck listening to him. Right wing zealot blog Front Page Magazine recently had an effusive commentary of his recent speech, so once again I thought I'd give it a listen. You can find it here. But it's the same thing. He says nothing. "We have the arguments, we need to defend freedom of speech, we abhor your statements but defend your right to say them, these people live in 'Planet Chomsky', blah, blah, blah." I learn absolutely nothing and gain no insight in how a reasonable person would defend Israel's policies towards the Palestinians. Contrast with John Mearsheimer. Reading the reviews from the right you'd think the guy was ready to fire up the gas chambers again. But have a listen. You can agree or disagree with him, but you have to admit that he's at least presenting a thesis and justifying it with facts and logic. At least you learn something. Dershowitz is just awful. Does anybody actually address the arguments of Israel's critics, like Norman Finkelstein and Noam Chomsky? http://bigwhiteogre.blogspot.com/2010/05/contrast-mearsheimer-with-dershowitz.html [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBclWDYuoxI&feature=player_embedded"]Chomsky on Dershowitz' "jihad" against Finkelstein Part 2 - YouTube[/ame] . .

Alan Morton Dershowitz is an American lawyer, jurist, and political commentator. He has spent most of his career at Harvard Law School where in 1967, at the age of 28, he became the youngest full professor of law in its history. He has held the Felix Frankfurter professorship there since 1993 As a criminal appellate lawyer, he has won 13 of the 15 murder and attempted murder cases... A political liberal,he is the author of a number of books about politics and law... Dershowitz has been described by Newsweek as America's "most peripatetic civil liberties lawyer and one of its most distinguished defenders of individual rights." He was named a Guggenheim Fellow in 1979, and in 1983 received the William O. Douglas First Amendment Award from the Anti-Defamation League for his work on civil rights. In November 2007, he was awarded the Soviet Jewry Freedom Award by the Russian Jewish Community Foundation. In December 2011, he was awarded the Menachem Begin Award of Honor by the Menachem Begin Heritage Center at an event co-sponsored by NGO Monitor. He has been awarded honorary doctorates in law from Yeshiva University, the Hebrew Union College, Monmouth University, University of Haifa, Syracuse University, Fitchburg State College, Bar-Ilan University, and Brooklyn College. In addition, he is a member of the International Advisory Board of NGO Monitor. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Dershowitz Oh yeah, did I forget to mention, he is a strong proponent of Israel's right to exist and defend herself and is therefore the object of intense hate of the IslamoNazi/UberLiberal/Commie/Aharchist crowd.
Oh yeah, did you forget to mention, that while the compliant media laudes this plagarist as a ‘distinguished defender of individual rights' ..................................................he is also one of 'TORTUREs' stongest proponents & if you cannot admit to the contradiction here, then you have surrendered your Intellect & we may take Borat as the crass Irrational Buffoon that he has chosen for his Avatar .......................................... . . .
Actually you forgot to mention that it's not just 'compliant media' whatever the hell it is, it's also dozens of well known universities and non-profit organizations that have granted him honorary doctorates, professorships and multiple awards for his amazing achievements. I will take their opinion over the opinion of an anomymous two-bit weirdo blogger who has nothing better to do with his empty life than capitalize and highlight random letters in his/her hysterical and illogical rants.
CNN: Dershowitz pushes for torture warrants - YouTube Alan knows what has to be done to Islamic terrorist war criminals. _
Dershowitz is a bum. This ' thread ' does not comply with the rules; http://www.politicalforum.com/latest...orld-news.html
Look at your list - everyone of those honors are Zionist funded or Israeli sponsored & good Boer Borat accuses me of - empty life & hysterical, illogical, rants
So - This foul Paranoid Psychotic projects his maligancies .......... to where he becomes a Terrorist & War Criminal & gleefully indulges in the sadistic torture of those he Hates His Rabid Irrational Hate no better than that which he opposes . .
While he [Alan Dershowitz] is known for defending clients such as Anatoly Sharansky, Claus von Bülow, O.J. Simpson, Michael Milken and Mike Tyson, he continues to represent numerous indigent defendants and takes half of his cases pro bono.
Of coarse all those who propose the use of Torture are genius Dershowitz is a maligant tumour Thanx for setting up a venue so that we might throw a light on him
How horrible......... The UN or its forerunner created Israel..... and they have stood idly by for the oppression and incremental genocide of the Palestinians.. Dersh can't cherry pick history.. He's clever but deceitful.. and he has no stomach for peace or justice. BTW.. Israel supported the creation of HAMAS.
Dersh is such a liar.. From the Palestinian Constitution ARTICLE 4 1.Islam is the official religion in Palestine. Respect and sanctity of all other heavenly religions shall be maintained. 2.The principles of Islamic Sharia shall be the main source of legislation. 3.Arabic shall be the official language. http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Constitution_of_Palestine_(2003)
Sorry, on this one I shall not capitulate. Dershowitz is one of the best legal minds there is. You can not like his politics, but that's your prerogative. I stand with Dershowitz and I stand with Israel.
Pick out two statements from his speech.. any two statements and research them.. He's a consumate liar, Ashen.
Which does not preclude him from being a zionist bigot and a plagiariser and myth creator. Lawyers, especially defense lawyers, have only one goal: find a way around the law to win one's point of view. lawyers are not interested in truth, morality, fairness, they are only interested in winning their case. Zionism is well represented by thousands of such lawyers.
