Michael Goodwin NY Post, Dec. 12, 2023 “Beyond Harvard, Gay’s reprieve likely will be turned into a misleading model by other schools facing calls for new leadership. They now have a template for conceding mistakes and denouncing antisemitism, then moving on as if they’ve solved the problem.” So now it’s one president down, no more […]

Daniel Haas Human Rights Watch, Nov. 25, 2023 “… it was the domination of HRW’s Israel-Palestine work by some voices that drown out others to the point where those who feel uncomfortable with HRW’s approach and processes – and they do exist – feel silenced.” Farewell email from Human Rights Watch’s Danielle Haas to […]
Tzipi Hotovely Yahoo News, Dec. 10, 2023 ‘… making any such call while Hamas still has its arsenal as well as 137 Israeli hostages, is like saying to Israelis that you do not mind if October 7 happens again, particularly given that the leadership of Hamas has publicly said that it would carry out October […]

Charles Lipson Real Clear Politics, Dec. 11, 2023 “They are the ones who demean all Israelis as “settler colonialists” who have no right to live there. They are the ones who call the generous donors of buildings, professorships, and student scholarships “exploitative capitalists,” hardly better than slave owners. And so on.” Chicken Little was […]
Adam Andrzejewski Tablet, Dec. 10, 2023 “It seems these schools are more federal contractors than educators—with federal payments exceeding undergraduate student tuition.” In their congressional testimony last week, the presidents of Harvard, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the University of Pennsylvania refused to denounce terrorism or explain whether calls for the genocide of Jews represent […]

Emily Jashinsky The Federalist, Dec. 7, 2023 “… if Ackman and Larry Summers and the many left-of-center voices who’ve rightfully expressed grave concerns since Oct. 7 are serious about solving the problem, they may need to take stock of their own values.” Hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman weighed in on the question of campus antisemitism […]

Andrew C. McCarthy National Review, Nov. 25, 2023 “The Brotherhood is a movement that sprang from universities and has always catalyzed campus radicalism.” After the jihadist barbarities of October 7, Israel responded with aerial bombardments of Hamas havens in Gaza, in preparation for the now-ongoing ground invasion. As the bombs fell, Hamas heavyweight Mousa Abu […]
Penny Pance Washington Times, Nov. 28, 2023 “This antisemitic mindset apparently never left the halls of academia. In the U.S. today, racists are now running the universities, implementing diversity, equity and inclusion programs that have reinforced hate not based on inclusion but on anti-colonialism.

Lance Morrow WSJ, Dec. 3, 2023 “Students at Harvard and Columbia don’t protest the region’s routine inhumanities. They do so only when there are Jews around to blame and to hate. It’s the Israelis’ Jewishness that brings the demonstrators out.” I remember a dinner party on Martha’s Vineyard in the 1970s when I and my […]
