Mahler's Prodigal Son has for a long time had an aversion to Alan Dershowitz, the law professor at Harvard's Law School. He plays the humanitarian card but is far from it. As the so-called "attorney for Israel" he really couldn't be any sort of libertarian or humanitarian.
Just one of his quotes shows he is not - and puts into question his standing and credibility as a lawyer. Dersh, as he is often called, said that the people of southern Lebanon only had themselves to blame for the pounding that the Israel's visited upon them during the recent Lebanon War - because they had voted Hezbollah into office. And presumably the people of Lebanon should have welcomed the thousands of cluster bombs too, dropped on them by the Israelis, still being cleared now, after all these years!.
Presently visiting Australia, Dersh has come up with at least one "pearl" and one troubling viewpoint.
Many will be surprised to learn that the "great" lawyer considers Nobel Prize winner, Archbishop Tutu, one of the most evil men in the world. See here.
Meanwhile, as if the world doesn't face enough turmoil and war, especially in the Middle East, what does Dersh say in relation to Iran?:
".....[he] said that the Israeli red line…a line which if crossed by Iran would invoke an attack…is six months ahead of America’s and he advocated a three day war by the U.S. to knock out Iran’s nuclear infrastructure in order to maintain peace in a region threatened by Iran’s nuclear capability."
