Harvard Divests Even Though It Is Not Part of the Jihad Against Israel

Incredible as it seems, a major Ivy League university has now made a "divestment" decision even though it does NOT involve demonizing Israel and encouraging Arab aggression, jihad and terrorism against Jews and America.

Harvard University has decided to divest from an oil company even though its only "sin" is that it collaborated with the genocidal Sudanese regime. Since when is that a cause for passion at Harvard, we wonder?

Be that as it may, Harvard University has decided to divest its holdings from PetroChina, an oil company with ties to the Sudanese government, according to an April 4th statement from the Harvard Corporation Committee on Shareholder Responsibility. The statement said the group usually makes decisions based on finances, but human rights violations in Sudan called for "extraordinary actions."

The Sudanese government has been engaging in what many consider genocide in the western region of Darfur in an effort toward “forced Arabization,” or “forced Islamization,” according to University of Wisconsin anthropology professor Sharon Hutchinson.

The Harvard decision comes after campaigns at several universities seeking to boycott and "divest" from Israel for sometimes daring to defend itself, and a new call from a New York city councilman for divestment from Columbia University, the Madrassah on the Upper West Side (see below).
