Harvard in Antisemitism Storm Over ‘Genocide’ Talk by Professor Who Appeared With Hamas Leader
New York Post ^ | March 4, 2024 | Isabel Vincent

A professor who appeared beside a top Hamas leader was due to speak on “genocide” at Harvard Monday — the same day as a deadline for the university to finally comply with a congressional subpoena demanding answers on antisemitism.

Noura Erakat, an associate professor of Africana studies at Rutgers University in New Jersey, was scheduled to speak on “We Charge Genocide; The Potential and Limits of International Law,” at the school’s Center for Middle Eastern Studies — after months of making anti-Israeli speeches.

The lecture by the controversial academic, who is also a human rights attorney, came amid mounting accusations that Harvard has failed to tackle antisemitism on its campus in the wake of the Hamas massacre of hundreds of innocent Israelis on October 7.

A useless eater who has never and will never contribute anything good to society. If not for Harvard this demon would be unemployed and the first decapitated by it’s beloved terrorist Muslims.

Harvard has long been bought out by Saudi and ME money.

Saudi Arabia is against Hamas and is allied with Israel. Though they don’t like that advertised to their people. They share a common enemy - Iran.

Irrelevant. Muslims stick together and they are ALL against Israel and the Jews despite House of Saud diplomatic overtones to Israel from time to time.

One would have to be an idiot to think there is any sympathy for Israel and the Jews among Harvard muslims.

And who pays their way at Harvard (for the most part)? Saudi and ME money.

The Saudis play a double and triple game.

At the end of the day if it helps the Royal Family it is good, if not it is bad.

All the rest is just strategy and tactics.

Irrelevant. Muslims stick together

That is quite evidently untrue. They have been fighting each other recently, and throughout history. Why was half of Syria seized from Assad. Why was ISIS fighting other Muslims. Why are Saudi Arabia and Iran at each other's throats. (Not to mention Turkey) Why was Iraq fighting Iran. Jews despite House of Saud diplomatic overtones to Israel from time to time.

It has nothing to do with diplomatic overtones. Israel and Saudi Arabia work hand in glove. Mossad works closely with Saudi intelligence. Because they both know that Iran is more of a threat then each other.

Saudi Arabia just can't tell their people, because can't risk something like the Grand Mosque seizure of 1979 again.

Money is the god of the Saudi royal family, not Allah. But they have to make it look good for the plebes. One would have to be an idiot to think there is any sympathy for Israel and the Jews among Harvard muslims.

I don’t know if they like Jews deep down in their souls, but they know they have to work together to stop Iran.

I knew some Saudis from my college days—they impressed me with their very practical approach to all things.

If it worked they liked the strategy—if it did not work they rejected it.

That meant keeping their deepest beliefs to themselves.

I don't disagree with some that. Some in the House of Saud work hand in glove with the Mossad...but others, the more devout Muslim ones, still hate Israel.

The House of Saud is not monolithic.

The money that goes to Harvard does not favor Israel and you know it.
