COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 'ANTI-SEMITISM' WITCHHUNT, 2005

                                                     

Yes, 2005. What we're seeing today in 2024 is nothing new. Israel's American supporters and unregistered agents of influence are constantly working to ban anyone who is not fond of Israel's crimes against humanity from colleges and elsewhere. 

Then as now, the pattern is well-honed and easily recognized. A Jewish student indoctrinated in Zionist ideology and brought up on the story of Jewish persecution for millennia culminating in the Holocaust, thus having a persecution complex, will deliberately sign up for a class by a Palestinian professor or a professor targeted as unfriendly to Israel, and bait the professor with outrageous remarks designed to emotionally upset the professor. Then the student, backed by outside organized Jewish Zionists, brings a complaint to the university administration claiming the professor is anti-Semitic. 

Obviously this is a plot hatched in advance. Students don't naturally sign up for classes they expect to dislike, with professors they are hostile to. The premeditation is obvious.

The way these things unfold is the university administration doesn't defend the targeted professor, but lets him or her twist slowly in the wind. At a minimum, the targeted educator suffers some reputational damage. When you hurl mud at someone, some of it sticks, no matter the untruthfulness of the smears.

I'm reminded of an anecdote about Lyndon Johnson. Johnson wanted to make an outrageous accusation against a political opponent. One of Johnson's minions said he couldn't do that, it wasn't true. "But let the son-of-a-bitch deny it," Johnson evilly replied. In other word, get the smear out there, put the victim on the defensive. Denying a vile accusation is what people expect a guilty person to do, same as an innocent one. As long as some people believe it, or are merely influenced by it subliminally, the tactic can be effective. Richard Nixon is a politician who rose to power by smearing people he ran for Congress against as Communist "fellow travelers" or tainted with socialistic tendencies.
