Ever since October 7, the antisemitism that’s long been festering beneath the surface at Harvard University has been on plain view. Whether it was the anti-Jewish genocidal chants from pro-Hamas protestors or Claudine Gay’s insistence that the “context” behind those chants was insufficient to trigger Harvard’s speech codes, Harvard was exposed as a hotbed of virulent antisemitism. In the latest news out of Harvard, it turns out that an appointee to Harvard’s antisemitism task force is…yes, an antisemite. Just yesterday, Harvard’s interim president proudly announced the formation of a “Presidential Task Force on Combating Antisemitism.” Just to keep things equitable, though,

FTA: examining recent history and current manifestations of bias;
The above is the first point on his hit list but there is nothing recent about anti-semitism. It is centuries old and Jews have always been a target of somebody. Today's anti-semites have been taught by their parents who were in turn taught by their parents that Jews are bad. The Nazis were not first. The muslims were not first. All that needs to be done is to break the link but instead we have our leaders and educators propagating the hatred. The practice goes so far back that it has spread around the world. We need to put some teeth in the law. Netanyahu gets it. Our stupid leaders should listen to him instead of trying to reign him in.

People in Mass. talk “funny” People at Harvard “think” funny, but not Ha Ha funny. Most are either affirmative action free tuition, or have wealthy doting parents. I wonder what portion “work their way through”.

What good is an anti Semitic task force without an anti smite? Don't you know you need diversity?

Harard leadership (Board, interim president) have no credibility. Of interest, the Board is led by one Penny Pritzker, who also wangled the Obama presidency whose aftermath is now in process of destroying the Democratic party. Her brother runs Illinois, from which those who can, are fleeing. She is now a special envoy to Ukraine and we will find out soon enough what damage she can do there. It is unfathomable how much damage one foolish and powerful person can do. Destroyed Harvard, the Democratic Party, swathes of the American economy, Illinois, and at work on Ukraine. Let it not be assumed Harvard can come back from this. As others have noted, Europe is littered with the ashes of universities once greater than Harvard, who fell under the control of the Nazis or the Communists, too political direction, and have become inconsequential. That is where Harvard is going. It is Penny's fault more than anyone else's.

There is no "fixing" Harvard. It should be treated like a huge Confederate monument, and toppled, dismantled, and its pieces placed into secure "storage," during the night or as many nights as it takes. The regime at Harvard is more anti-American than the Confederates, whom the monuments memorialized. Besides, Harvard had its own slaves, at least 70, brought in by administrators, faculty, and staff to "care for" students, faculty, and college presidents. Its donors included slave owners throughout the 17th, 18th, and a little over half of the 19th century.

Goodbye, Harvard, your bloated fraudulent reputation has destroyed you. Nobody thinks you're "all that" anymore. You're putrid...that's the nicest thing I can say about you!

The left has a long history of hating Jews. Jimmy Carter is thankful that Biden has taken his mantle of worst president ever. They both of course are wildly anti-Semitic. For the most anti Jewish president the competition is stiff: Obama, Carter, Wilson, Biden, Grant, FDR, Nixon, LBJ all hated Jews.

Wouldn't you think that by now, everyone, even esteemed writers like Widburg would be sick to death of trying to cough up one more word on the subject of a dead, or dying, university that has lost it's core?
