It is a terrible thing he experienced, but Mr. Finkelstein must live a sheltered life in academia.
He should have put on his clothes and cooperated with the stormtroopers/police when they arrived to kidnap/arrest him. They were of course just following orders and don’t care about his protests. You can have your day in court before a judge and argue there.
The use of the court to make him miss his ordered court appearance and fall into breach of conditions is classic judicial malice. They do it everywhere, everyday, to people less prominent than Mr. Finkelstein.
I greatly respect Norman Finkelstein for his courage, the clarity of his thinking, and – most important – his willingness to pay the price for speaking out. This interview from 2016 is worth reading.
2016-interview
I have enormous respect for Norman Finkelstein and his respect for telling the truth as he sees it, I don’t agree with his support for a “two-state” solution, nor with his belief that Israel will be a permanent nation. But those are the results of his somewhat flawed analyses, rather than any faulty sense of humanity.
The world would be better off if there were many more people like him. The “social death” and Berufsverbot that the (((establishment))) has imposed against him, is a threat which works to silence lesser people. We help ourselves by helping him remove that oppression.
The Barbara Steisland Effect strikes again!
The first two links in a professional report on one of the two lawyers are to Finkelstein articles about the case and their behavior. Finkelstein articles also appear near the top of the links in a duckduckgo search on the other one.
What does “the Barbra Streisand effect” mean?

The sad story of Dr. Norman Finkelstein have me shocked and outraged.
Solution: Move to Russia – land of the free, home of the brave.
Look, women have never had power in the USA- all the ‘power’ women have exerted came from powerful SJW men ‘virtue signalling’. And these foolish men have been found across the whole spectrum of American life- left, right, Deep State, independent, whatever.
Look how American ***men*** made alcohol illegal to please their womenfolk in the worst case of ***virtue signalling*** in Human History. Turning divorce into the ruination of the male party, guilty or innocent, was done by male political power alone.
When men ‘think’ using what exists below the belt, terrible things happen. This is ***not*** an argument for mistreating women or denying one half of the Human population their rights. The current scandals in the pseudo-liberal left, where pretend female friendly figures were actually using their positions to abuse women show where the real problems faced by women lie.
Divorce abuses are 100% a problem of male power, because that power is used to craft male-hating laws all too often. Too many men are embarrased to think rationally when it comes to women and relationships. A smart man knows why, throughout most of Human History, divorce was all but banned. When divorce is easy, people make cheap and nasty choices- divorce hasn’t made life for any group better when the pros and cons are weighed against one another.
The nasty truth is that any long term relationship is going to be pretty rotten at times, and tends to get worse as time progresses. Divorce doesn’t solve this issue. Too many people rush to marry for foolish reasons, or because they allow the biological programming that is found in all life forms, including the lowest, to rule their lives.
When divorce does happen, it is female biological programming that makes too many women deny that anything good ever happened in that relationship- and thus they see their ex-partner as the worst person in the world. The hurt that comes from retconning the past (google ‘retcon’ if you don’t know the term) is particularly devastating to the man.
America leads the way with female friendly ‘advanced’ divorce laws that actually make the whole process the most destructive on the planet. For the USA makes the price of divorce sky high, yet instead of doing this to discourage divorce, actually combines maximum hurt with maximum ease of divorce. The Americans also have the ***Roman*** system when it comes to family- ie., the children are the possessions of the parents,and have no independent legal rights of their own. So in a divorce in the USA, even a 17-year old young adult has no say, with the courts determining what will be forced on the young adult.
So US courts have total power over every member of the family, and wreak havoc with this power. Nothing like this happens in Britain or Europe. In the First World, only America follows the ‘Roman’ system- a consequence of the USA using the same to justify the slave trade back in the day. American courts treat children today in the same fashion as they did slaves two hundred years ago- its all about ‘ownership’.
So guys, stop with the SJW and virtue signalling cr-p, that’s not how you respect the opposite sex. Do not fall over yourself to prove your ‘respect’ of the opposite sex by supporting obscenities like prohibition or easy divorce laws- the first led to the rise of organised crime and strengthened the police state, the latter runs the lives of astonishing numbers of children.
Today, in the West, we have a society that is the equivalent to an excessively tattooed, excessively pierced freak- everything taken to extremes in the name of ‘social justice’. Balance is called the out-dated thinking of the ‘bigot’. In Europe if you are not in favour of unlimited economic migration from the least civilised parts of the continent, you are a ‘racist’. The demons play a mind game against every ordinary Human, and delight in setting one against another in the name of ***chaos*** (see Catalonia).
Gays should never have been abused for being ‘gay’, but neither should gays be given the ‘prize’ of some woman’s child for what they do in private with their privates. Easy divorce and gay ‘marriage’ are not advancements of civilised society. Live and let live, and mutual respect need no synthetic societal extremes to prove they are in motion. A real man stands up for the rights of everyone, but does not mistake the work of demons and their pied pipers as examples of correct or helpful social justice.
Once women wanted the right to work, and have their own decent independent income- and that was good. Now married women are ***forced*** to work throughout most of the West, whether they want too or not, by economic manipulations by the same people that have given you easy divorce and gay ‘marriage’. Even if a woman is lucky enough to have the option to stay at home and raise her children, she is labelled as a freak if she does so. And heaven forbid if the husband is lucky enough to have the same option and chooses it.
And if today, man or woman, young or old, you- the reader- feel bad about your life, it is almost certain those who have manipulated society around you play the greater part in your unhappiness. Bad things don’t happen to good people by accident. Ask the people of Syria. Ask the people of Spain if the demons pushing for civil war in the false name of ‘independence’ get their way.
War is like easy divorce. On a very rare occasion both are the best option, but 99.99% or the time both are ruinous for all involved to some real degree. And in the West, the ‘entertainment’ industry sells both easy divorce and war via endless propaganda.
“… divorce hasn’t made life for any group better…”
Great post, Twi, but the banksters may disagree with you on that one bit. In “1984,” Orwell wrote that, ”The Party systematically undermines the solidarity of family.” It’s nothing against men or women personally; it’s just business. This simply makes it easier for Big Brother and Big Business to raise everyone’s kids. Same-sex marriage and the hook-up culture share a similar purpose, but more along the lines of Huxley’s hypersexual “Brave New World.”
Hang on! You are saying that women do not have power, only men have power – but women have the ability to make men with power do their bidding. And men with power repeatedly act against their interests to please women.
Let me say that you have a very odd definition of power. I do not disagree with your generalizations, but I think you need a broader definition of power.
“Divorce abuses are 100% a problem of male power,”
No.
Perhaps historically, and to a great extent now, too.
But, and it is a big but, the way laws have been written has totally overswung.
In Mass., all a woman has to do is accuse a man of . . . . any number of things. No evidence needed. And the guy’s life can really be ruined. It is virtually automatic now, in the ways laws are written, that an aggrieved wife can screw her husband for good.
This in no way negates the reality of male oppression.
Please do not go the “anti-woman” direction (cf. “anti-Semitism”‘ for any criticism of Israel).
But, there is a huge opportunity for abuse of husbands in current divorce/custody/support laws.
I know from personal experience.

There are too many categorical statements in this comment.
I’ve been through all that and more. I finally realized that if I didn’t attend their mandatory psyche eval they couldn’t deem my crazy and couldn’t deny me contact.
One friend did go through the process and was denied all contact, direct and indirect, permanently and completely.
Another friend was arrested repeatedly at 3 am, then released at 9:30, with bo charges. Needless to say, he lost his job.

Political Persecution of Norman Finkelstein
https://www.globalresearch.ca/political-persecution-of-norman-finkelstein/5615736
In 1944 a few Germans like Stauffenberg fought to save the honour of Germany.
In 2017 a few truly exceptional individuals like Norman F. are trying to do the same in America.
May the Lord watch over him and keep him safe.
If you tell the truth, you become systematically prosecuted
