A sad time for Harvard. I read the original paper and the Dershowitz point-by-point rebuttal. The slant in the Mearsheimer/Walt paper was obvious from the start. They clearly had their agenda. It seems like a pretty clear case of -dare I say it- anti-semitism to me. The biggest problem is that their scholarly disguise, the Harvard stamp of approval, and the resulting wide spread press might really influence the general reader to think that that Jews in America should not be given the right to present their case. How un-American! Thank you Mr. Dershowitz and Mr. Gitell.
