Alan Dershowitz: Ethnic cleansing is a fifth-rate issue, akin to urban renewal.

In the article I just posted I found this "pearl" from Dershowitz that I deem worth highlighting and reposting. What's at work here is not mere disdain for humanity, it goes further to a denial of humanity:

"Alan Dershowitz and Melanie Phillips are two of the most prominent figures sent in to attack anyone who disagrees with the Israeli right. Dershowitz is a lawyer, Harvard professor and author of The Case For Israel. He sees ethnic cleansing as a trifling matter, writing: "Political solutions often require the movement of people, and such movement is not always voluntary ... It is a fifth-rate issue analogous in many respects to some massive urban renewal."

  1. This is nothing new,  the dufus has used this same "argument" before,  here is an instance of its use in 1999.  He is a old dog that needs to be retired -
