#418 โ€“ Israel-Palestine Debate: Finkelstein, Destiny, M. Rabbani & Benny Morris

You agreed that I have condemned Israeli attacks on civilians. Yes, there are. I never quarrel with facts. Your description of the 1982 war is so shocking, it makes my innards writhe. And then your description of the Second Intifada? Your description of defensive shield? They are worse than apologetics. That's like the Stalinist rule of falsification.

I am completely aware of that. But if you forgot the numbers, it was three to one. They killed mostly armed Palestinian government. That's what you say in your book, but that's not what Amnesty International said. That's not what Human Rights Watch said. I don't remember what they said. I do. I don't know whether their figures are right. My figures are right.

You don't have to know everything that's in print, especially by modest publishers. But now you know. And so here's the public challenge. You answer and show where I cherry picked, where I misrepresented. Send me the article. And then we can have a civil scholarly discussion. I'm not sure we will agree.
