The messages invoked the Holocaust, Adolf Hitler and Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack on Israel.
In one message Ha wrote, “The end of American jews is close. Let’s start with the jews in Lower Merion,” the Philadelphia township where Haverford is located. In another he said, “If jews are so special then they should also be placed in special camps and receive special treatments,” court documents show.

Idiots like this professor really are antisemites and should be condemned as such, but Hamas—unjustified as it is in targeting civilians through terrorism—isn't targeting Israelis because they're Jewish, they're targeting them because the Zionist movement colonized Palestinian-owned land. Terrorism is never justified, but it's important to not conflate anti-Zionism with antisemitism.
Whoa there, you're not just chugging the kool-aid, you're disseminating it. Saying that Hamas has less than a total hatred of Jews and the will to render all of historical Palestine judenfrei is just pouring fuel on the fire.
Disclaimer for the dense: I oppose Israel's genocide of Palestinians as would any decent human being.
isn’t targeting Israelis because they’re Jewish
Nice thought, but this doesn't reflect the reality on the ground. Antisemitism is common in countries where stupid people imagine that Jews are controlling them. Imagine how easy it must be to hate Jews when the Star of David is on the occupying forces uniform and tanks.
@LT_Columbo@feddit.online is that you? JK JK, we know you're on the other end of the semite spectrum.
Look at the Havard's list of Society of Fellows and you'll reconize names that have been outspoken in their criticization of Israel amongst the members. Either A. Harvard is targeting and/or using a perhaps willing professor as a puppet to serve as "an example" to others, and/ or B. the Society of Fellow's long, over-arching goal they are to pursue in their study, is actually agenda based compliance, and/or fellows are also serving as academic controlled opposition.
Harvard's claim to fame study when it first opened was eugenics and it still uses legacy in its admittance, AKA we want eugenics to continue via the racist families we roll out the crimson carpet for so thay will continue to come to Harvard. AND also stay in positions of power via their fancy diplomas we practically throw in our legacy admissions' laps.
Epstein's professor position and the sit down by Larry Summers that helped Zuckerberg take Facebook, both happened at Harvard.
People who do not see Harvard for what it is, especially since so many ivy leaguers/Harvard grads enter politics, you're being hoodwinked by, and for, the prestige to continue to control your literal (legiteral/legislative/law) existence.
Deconstruct everything, or you're doom to fall for everything that you haven't.
Criticism of Israel's policies is not (at least not necessarily) antisemitic.
Haverford is not Harvard.

Rules:
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
