Tonight on @SystemUpdate_, 7pm ET: We spend the hour with Norman Finkelstein, and explore: what is the future of Israel, and its war in Gaza? Finkelstein polarizes many, but there's no denying his deep scholarship on these questions: rumble.com/v4q23p2-system…
@ggreenwald @SystemUpdate_ I do not think he has deep scholarship on these issues. It’s funny how you introduce your guests differently depending on how much they hate Israel.
@ggreenwald @SystemUpdate_ Not exactly a prophet, is he.
@ggreenwald @SystemUpdate_ I tell you how it ends - offensive in the informational domain of warfare (Greenwald hasn't realised some of his friends were doing actual journalism), then Russia gets in diplomatically (possibly China, too).
@ggreenwald @SystemUpdate_ Next week: E. Michael Jones and Nick Fuentes?
@ggreenwald @SystemUpdate_ I like Norm but I just find it difficult to listen to him talk. It's like someone grating porcelain plates with a cheese grater.
@ggreenwald @SystemUpdate_ Actually there is much denying, most of it deserved. He is among the worst of liars and fantasists. On multiple occasions, sources he's cited have denied his claims based on them. He's like CNN, if it wasn't even slightly culturally significant. He's not even good for parody.
@ggreenwald @SystemUpdate_ Ask him where he was when a prof he taught with at Depaul named Thomas Klocek got.fired for being impolite to pro Palestinian protesters. Norman didn't say anything to defend him of course.
@ggreenwald @SystemUpdate_ Is he pro-one state solution with equal rights for all. That’s the million dollar Norm question.
@ggreenwald @SystemUpdate_ Let us know when it goes on YouTube or X.
@ggreenwald @SystemUpdate_ He is the most knowledgeable person on Gaza. He knows all the issues inside out, that’s why Zionist hate him so much
