1. misdirection is a despicable debating tactic: he was right to insist that the holocaust is not used to derail his positions on the Israel-Palestine conflict
2. His specialist subject is the Israel-Palestine conflict. Therefore I find it difficult to take his suggestion seriously that the holocaust death toll was ~1.5m when the overwhelming majority of data and expert analysis supports a figure ~6m
*makes note to learn more about Finkelstein
right but in the book he wrote he cited that the numbers fluctuated alot and not all of the holocaust scholars cited 6m ?????? If you want to learn more about him here.
