It should be no surprise that the reporter is Ron Grossman, who wrote an excellent piece on Thomas Klocek for the Tribune in late 2005.
An excerpt from Friday's free-registration-required article:
In his books, Finkelstein has called efforts to get compensation for Holocaust victims from Germany a "shakedown." He labels leaders of Jewish organizations "Holocaust-mongers."
Contending the number of survivors has been inflated to scoop up more money, Finkelstein in one book recollects the words of his mother, herself a prisoner of the Nazis:
"'If everybody who claims to be a survivor actually is one,' my mother used to exclaim, 'who did Hitler kill?'"
