Regarding Normal Finklestein: I was in error and I appologize. This was not a publicity stunt, although He appears to be getting some good publicity out of this. I heard him interviewed about it on CBC radio today. He was not going to Israel to give lectures or speeches, He was going to visit a friend in the West Bank which he has visited over the last 15 years. According to him, Israeli authorities questioned him and held him there for 18 hours when they decided to put him on a plane back home and told him not to come back for 10 years. He has no idea why they decided to do that.
