Given the description of the course as “situating Gaza within comparative histories of the Armenian genocide, the Holocaust, and genocide against Black and Indigenous populations” one can only wonder about Holocaust trivialization.

I doubt any student will have the courage to point out that the only position Gaza holds in this list is as the item that does not belong. And that’s assuming that the Black genocide is a reference to the Rwandan genocide, though it will more likely focus on slavery in the West to the exclusion of any mention of the brutal Arab slave trade.

Minimalist, trivialized, and universalized are the trends 😔 and denial, of course.

“the systematic targeting of a group’s reproductive capacities, both biological and social, as a deliberate strategy of erasure.”

I wonder how she will square this accusation with the documented fact that the population of Gaza has almost doubled over the past 20 years. Since when have Jew haters cared one whit for such niceties as truth, history and facts.

why would something as trivial as "facts" stop her?

Oh come on, sign up for it, and ask her tough questions. Here is a sample: 1) so polygamy, and sexual servitude of women as advocated by hamas is reproductive liberation? 2) How come the repro-whatever is causing Gaza 's population to explode? 3) do you honestly think Armenians would have any sympathy for a islamist movement or are you high on drugs? 4) how dare you not wear a niquab and lecture men? and others like this

For the Ivy League, this is predictable. But next to be corrupted will trade schools with courses entitled “Arc Welding: A Fiery Response To IDF Use Of White Phosphorus” the jihadist worms bore their way into every corner of life.

Rich kids who don't know what their gender is, will be talking about things that they know nothing about. What is Zionism, so-called "Dr." Shalhoub-Kevorkian?

The profound ignorance of this so-called educator and the Princeton professors and administrators who justify this level of crackpot nonsense as consistent with academic freedom and free speech evidence all that is wrong with our universities. As someone recently described Harvard, these places are nothing more than hedge funds purporting to be “educational” institutions.

So they will discuss the rising birth rate and population increase of Gazans over the last two years right? And how that’s the exact opposite thing that happens in a genocide? Right? 😒

WTF was this monster doing in Israel anyway?

And WHY was it teaching in an Israeli university? Don’t tell me they didn’t know what her views were.

I wonder if Dr Shalhoub-Kevorkian is related to the other Dr Kevorkian (aka "Dr Death")
