The Harvard encampment has just ended. Do you want to see Harvard’s antisemitism in real time? Harvard has agreed with almost all of their demands. I’ve never been this disillusioned than this morning. 🧵1/5
The encampment espoused near daily antisemitism, harassed and followed Jews, called for the violent destruction of the Jewish state, and violated school policy.
Harvard has agreed today to all of their demands: in exchange for leaving, the antisemites will have their suspension revoked. They will get to meet with the University to discuss a Palestinian Studies department. They will meet with the Corporation to discuss divesting.
Not once has Harvard publicly condemned the objective antisemitism that we Jewish students have faced as a result. Not once has the antisemitism task force said anything. More importantly, not once have they DONE anything to combat antisemitism here at Harvard
Jews here have no allies, no voice, and no advocates. The only way Harvard will ever change is sustained outside pressure. Please help us!

SHOCKING: Harvard students are openly chanting in support of Iran. Of all the students I’ve had the displeasure of sharing a study hall with, these are of the lowest mental and intellectual caliber. Why are American taxpayers funding these institutions? End the handouts now!
The footage was captured by @107CVII, Harvard affiliates and concerned community members.
On the eve of the one year anniversary of the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, Harvard students chant “from water to water, Palestine will be Arab.” Harvard is irredeemable
Harvard Law School Student Government will be violating its own constitution to vote on a secretive+rushed BDS resolution accusing Israel of “ethnic cleansing”+”genocide.” The elected student reps removed all their names from public website to avoid any accountability. Cowards.
The same Harvard Law School Student Government has not passed any resolution condemning the terrorist group Hamas, the targeting of Jewish civilians on 10/07, sexual violence against women, or the continued holding of U.S. hostages in Gaza.
It’s ridiculous to be an elected student representative on a hotly contentious issue and expect zero accountability for how you vote
🧵 on Professor Shaul Magid. I know Professor Magid personally and had the pleasure of taking his classes. While his views on Zionism differ from mine, he has *always* argued for the legitimacy of the existence of the state of Israel.
His critique of Zionism is what he calls "counter Zionism,” not a rejection of the state of Israel but an analysis of whether Zionism continues to be the best ideological foundation for the continued flourishing of the state of Israel in the future.
I was wrong to say he believed in a “Judaism beyond Zionism,” and have apologized to him directly and now do so publicly.
