This excuse of a rabbi sounds like quite the scumbag. Harvard is true to its calling. Thanks for posting this piece, unpalatable as the work must have been. It's like doing work on Kapos and finding out they truly are disgusting human beings.

Sadly, the phenomenon of the self hating “kapo Jew” is not uncommon throughout Jewish history. Whether through profound ignorance or some deep seated psychological need (ie Stockholm Syndrome) such individuals turn their backs on their own people, land, culture and history. What they never understand until it is too late is that there is no great success in being on the last train to Auschwitz.

"There is no great success in being on the last train to Auschwitz." This is the wisest sentence I read about this type of traitors. Brilliant!

Sadly it is historically accurate.

Feel free to share the comment whenever coming across such irrational obstinacy.

Iran is not anti-colonialist but rather is itself a colonial islamic empire. Islam is not indigenous to Persia. Islam has been forced upon the Persians.

Harvard is a cesspool.

"Indeed, Magid (quoting the ideologically unhinged and extremely aggressive postmodern pedophile Michel Foucault) notes the Iranian Revolution was “a successful revolt against colonialism.” Successful? For whom? It birthed a theocracy that stones women, executes gays, and finances Hezbollah. But Magid’s concern is not theocracy—it’s Zionism".

This is an excellent essay. Wish there were a way to force him to read it, because he would never do so voluntarily.

Every victimized group has its internal traitors who have internalized self-hatred and learnt how to encash it.

‘Certain things happened that were probably ill-as advised’. Really Magid. Can you communicate? Can you write? Not about this.

Magid is a yeshiva world drop out who thinks that being so gives him a license to criticize all of Jewish life including the State of Israel and who reacts poorly to criticism of his perspective Chazal called individuals such as Magid a Shoneh UParush an individual who learned and walked away from Torah

Another public spectacle of Jewish infighting. If there are Jewish groups that support or reject Zionism, or support /reject the idea of a Jewish state, support or reject the current war in Gaza or support / reject any number of Jewish projects .. let alone the people who live in Israel as against those who live in various other countries then who decides who will represent them in an organisation like Harvard. Since there are about an infinite number of personal opinions about all these Jewish projects would it be better to support this mr Magid. Have private talks with him to say, agree to disagree and get on with the real job of developing a strategy of addressing anti semitism in the universities.

Seems that he is just trying to make sure that the Jew hating crocodiles eat him last. What he refuses to appreciate that he will be eaten regardless of the views he espouses.
