Norman gives us sources, Jewish sources which are difficult to discredit. The next little bit is verbatim. From http://www.normanfinkelstein.com/article.php?pg=11&ar=2600:-

On How Actual Survivors Were Cheated by
Jewish Organizations:

  'First Class flights around the world, accommodation at deluxe hotels, dining at fancy restaurants and a series of credit cards, this is how the Claims Conference, which deals with restitution of stolen Jewish property from the Holocaust, operates.'

• Haaretz: Survivors' protest makes foreign journalists gasp, security vanish (08.06.2007)
  "I want the Germans to know where the money they gave Israel went," he said angrily. "I want the Germans to know that Israel took the money we should have received. I want them to answer one question: Where did our money go?"
