This is known to many Israelis for years. People do not hate the U.S.A. because it helps Israel, it is the other way around. Even so, Israel will always support the true American way of life.

That is why there is antisemitism on campus: our universities have abandoned their basic principles. They have become revolutionary in their outlook, committed to the transformation of society, rather than passing on the values and wisdom of our civilization.

The rot at Harvard did not begin on October 7. It began long before — even before the university began teaching students about the “legacy of slavery” at Harvard, rather than the institution’s true legacy as a cradle of abolition, whose privileged sons gave their lives for the Union and the cause of freedom.

So many Harvard students volunteered to fight in the Civil War that they had their own regiment, the 20th Massachusetts infantry, whose flag hangs in Memorial Hall.

Students walk past that flag every day, but few know what it is. Nor do they encounter the writings of the Founders, or the philosophers who inspired them.

I was assigned to read John Locke once as a Harvard undergraduate; I was assigned Karl Marx several times, including “On the Jewish Question,” a crudely antisemitic text.

Students learn to hate Jews because they are taught to hate capitalism, to hate success — to hate America.

They are taught that America’s prosperity — which surrounds them — is the product of unjust privilege and exploitation, not innovation, hard work, and liberty.

Through that lens, Israel’s success is viewed with suspicion, not admired. It is easily described as the latest manifestation of imperialism or “systemic racism,” rather than what it is: the best example of an oppressed people liberating themselves.

Jews feel powerless to contest the lies that surround them because they have been relegated to the margins in the new hierarchy of “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI).

Though Jews come in every color, and the majority of Israeli Jews are not European in origin, Jews in America are considered “white.” Therefore, even when they are the victims of violent hatred, their voices carry less weight than those who are targeting them — whose motives must be carefully examined, who must be treated with empathy.

The fact is that the children of immigrants from Muslim countries are arriving on campus, and many have views about Jews and Israel that reflect the closed societies their families came from. The universities ought to challenge these views, but generally do not, treating them instead with deference.
