8. It did receive brief comment in the Washington Post, and it came in for strong attacks in the Wall Street Journal, which is pro-neocon; and in U.S. News and World Report, which is owned by arch-Zionist Mortimer Zuckerman.
9. The introductory page states: "We are pleased to provide an electronic database to disseminate works-in-progress reflecting the broad range of research activities of Kennedy School faculty members. You may search the database, view abstracts of papers, and download the full text of papers in Adobe Acrobat PDF format."
It is noteworthy that the papers submitted are formatted in different ways, which implies minimal editing. It seems that a faculty member could post anything that he desired.

Editor's note. Dr. Sniegoski reports that sometime after Dershowitz first posted his article, a new version replaced it in which the page numbers at the top of each page had been deleted, making it much more difficult for readers to find specific citations in the PDF document. Dr. Sniegoski reports further that the passages he cites now appear on different pages. Therefore we are driven to take the unusual step of showing approximate page numbers; but for all we know, citations in the article may again shift their page location.If no further changes are made to the PDF, readers may be able to find the citation by looking at the page just before the one given. For instance, it is possible that material cited as being on page 14 may be found on page 13. — Nicholas Strakon

29. For example, Dershowitz relies on Peter Novick's criticisms of Norman Finkelstein. Dershowitz writes (p. 19 — approximate): "University of Chicago historian Peter Novick had it exactly right when he said Finkelstein's so-called scholarship — which he says includes made up quotes and sources — is a 'twenty-first century updating of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.'" Those charges are refuted by Finkelstein in "To Debate or to Defame? A reply to Peter Novick," posted at Finkelstein's own site.
