In January 2025, Harvard University adopted a new definition of antisemitism. (https://www.insidehighered.com/news/diversity/religion/2025/01/28/ihra-antisemitism-definition-adopted-harvard-prompts-backlash) It defines antisemitism as, among other things, "drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis." The definition is known as @TheIHRA definition of antisemitism (https://holocaustremembrance.com/resources/working-definition-antisemitism). Thus, Harvard would have defined Albert Einstein as an antisemite, who, in 1948, described the Israeli political party Herut as a “political party closely akin in its organization, methods, political philosophy & social appeal to Nazi and fascist parties.” (https://www.arabnews.com/node/1289796) Harvard would have also defined David Ben Gurion, Israel's first Prime Minister, an antisemite, who "regularly" liked Menachem Begin to Hitler (https://www.jstor.org/stable/30245767) Harvard University has adopted a cartoonish definition of antisemitism. Harvard is intellectually bankrupt. It exists to promote and debate and discussion over what is and is not antisemitism, not restrict the conversion around it. What a toxic wealth management firm. sorry, university.
