Anumber of our elite college presidents — at Harvard, MIT, UPenn — are in public-relations trouble after being pretty evasive about whether chanting out loud for the genocide of Jews amounted to a violation of their school’s code of conduct. They really couldn’t say.
The university presidents, exposed in Congress, looked like they hadn’t answered a question in a political space less left-wing than a phalanx of Red Guards during Mao’s Cultural Revolution. Can we have more context? Is genociding the Jews punching down? I mean, what does “globalize the intifada” really mean when you are shouting it at someone in a yarmulke in a rich part of Boston?
