Glad we don't have to deal with the awkward "fawning" I do over DMs, though, this truly was a humiliating moment for me, I am absolutely mortified that you outted me for my simping behavior!
Not only was Finkelstein wrong on this point, this point was missed by so many laymen that the recently retired President of the ICJ, Joan Donoghue (who presided over the case) had to come out and make a public statement due to so many members of the media spreading misinformation about the case's strength at the initial proceedings. (attached video 1) I guess that Wikipedia education is paying off for me, if I was able to get ahead of most members of the media on that talking point!
Congratulations for chatting with Olmert, though, he's a friendly guy! I would know, since I've also interviewed him! (attached picture)
I've also interviewed Yossi Belin (initiator and major architect of the Oslo Accords) and Shlomo Ben-Ami (Israeli diplomat who participated in the Camp David Summit). (attached pictures) This is among numerous others in the Israeli Knesset and the West Bank.
I'm sorry that I've mispronounced names, though, I guess that kind of deligitimizes every other opinion I have on the conflict..? Because I use Wikipedia? Shouldn't that make it even harder to combat the claims I've made, though?
What does it say for your side if I've been able to dismantle every single talking point you have while all you can do is accuse me of using "wikipedia"? Shouldn't Norm Finkelstein have known more about the ICJ case, maybe? Maybe they uploaded the entire thing to Wikipedia, I guess.
It's strange to me that a man willing to go head-to-head with people like Tommy Robinson and the leader of the AFD would be so frightened by a man who he's accusing of only reading Wikipedia.
@mehdirhasan Feel free to apply the same standard to Destiny and Piker.
Only one of them hates the west, toxifies democrat candidates with their physical proximity and is jovial about terrorism.
@mehdirhasan@shannonrwatts But your accusations against destiny are demonstrably fake, relentlessly pushed by Piker allies.
Most of the criticisms of Piker are correct, and become more correct with context.
@mehdirhasan Yes, left wing news doesnt sufficiently call out it's far left, illiberal flank. Well spotted.
This is the precise reason it's important to do so on social media, and the reason a lot of us are doing it.
@johnsmith26647@mehdirhasan Damn its crazy youre uncritically repeating fake talking points and not addressing substance. Kinda like Medhi this whole time.
