MPS has always regarded Alan Dershowitz, professor of law at Harvard, as a disgrace. Certainly his behaviour when he sees someone attack Israel or its conduct, is akin to a pit bull terrier. Reason and any semblence of decent discourse goes out the window.
Mondoweiss now records in "White Hunter Dershowitz Bagged Finkelstein-- Now Claims Carter Too":
"If you wonder why Obama can't run against the neocons, well this is how the world works: Alan Dershowitz is claiming that he is responsible for getting Jimmy Carter banned from speaking at the Democratic Convention because the former president likened conditions on the West Bank to apartheid. Dershowitz repeatedly refers to Carter as a "bigot." Oh my. And says that barring Carter was his price for supporting the Democratic Party.
I played a role in seeking to persuade the Democrats to disinvite Carter. I made it clear that I could not support a party that honored a b****t like Carter. Many others— Jews and non-Jews—took the same position.
A little grandiose? Wouldn't be the first time. Dershowitz is piqued that Jimmy Carter declined to debate him. I wish Dershowitz would name some of those Israel-loving non-Jews. They could have a big barbecue. Oh--that would be the whole Democratic leadership, Nancy Pelosi dangling Israeli dogtags at the AIPAC conference. By the way, Jews are outsiders in the United States and have no power and are subject to periodic waves of antisemitism forcing them from good jobs and destroying their property."
