The only thing conservative about Dershowitz is his support for Israel. Just because he displays a hypocritical ethnic solidarity with his fellow Jews does not excuse his disgusting liberal politics in every other sphere. I'm glad to see Finklestein take apart that self-serving egotitical blowhard for plagerizing Joan Peter's discredited book.
Who "discredited" Joan Peters' book? Finkelstein. How did he "discredit" it? He said so. Did he actually disprove any of her facts? Not one.
As I said, he's merely Pat Buchanan in reverse. And "palaeos" (people who deny objective religious truth and believe each "autochthonous" people creates its own spiritual reality) will merely derive aid and comfort from his "pro-Israel" stance. This merely "proves" (they will claim) that the "real Communists" are still working for the Jews and that anti-Israel communism is communism over which its "creators" have lost control. This type of blasphemy which someone like Dershowitz cannot but encourage (with his ultra-leftist politics) is not funny and I would gladly do without "supporters" like him.

I know nothing about the Peter book, but if it is pro-Israel and Dershowitz is discrediting it with his hypocrisy, then this merely proves my thesis.
