If the editors were to look a little harder, they might find that there are students and faculty members at Harvard who are not Jewish and who support Israel, who support the war against Islamic terrorism, and who are, like their Jewish peers, American patriots through and through. The war, the support of Israel, patriotism are not positions engendered by ethnicity alone--or even primarily, I suspect. It happens that we sometimes are able to see the right path because a question strikes near to home, near to family, or near to our fellows in faith, but please don't mistake this for a matter of mainly Jewish interest--I know you don't, but try to not even seem to do so.

That many young Americans have been misled into seemingly alrtuistic sophistry by the persistent leftist academics that dominate our schools is a disaster, and we must find ways to open those young eyes to the perfidy of many of their teachers without falling into the baits of their bigotry--one of which is, of course, to picture the Jews as a monolithic conspiracy. We should not be surprised that the same people who, openly or privately, call the president a Nazi are themselves using Nazi-like propaganda to further their anti-Israel and anti-American agendas. It is still difficult for me to believe that people like Mr. Matory, et al., believe what they espouse, but they make such trash seem plausible, and that is damaging to us all.
