Norman Finkelstein sides with a renowned Holocaust denier. Why he does this, when even his parents were Holocaust survivors is beyond me. Actually, I know that he ridiculed his parents' small tipend they received from the German government, and was not very understanding to his parents about it. I get the distinct feeling he's an incredibly f*cked up individual with a dictionary-like list of mental problems. Too many things point to this being a possibility.
As for the former Israel foreign minister, as I said in my previous post, this is a man who hated Peres, hated Sharon, then, for the whipped topping on the cake, he was accused of being the responsible one in the deaths of Arabs in 2000 (as he was indeed responsible). It's clear he's developed quite a hatred of his country, which is why he's taken the opposite view of nearly all Jewish people and is these days being interviewed in the same room with Finkelstein and other anti-Israel individuals.

Why does "less profitable" equal 'unviable'? |

Because in some cases "less" means "un". |
