On the right, antisemites <\/span><span class=\"s4\">are, at least, <\/span><span class=\"s4\">open<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> and honest, unabashed or even, at times, proud. T<\/span><span class=\"s4\">h<\/span><span class=\"s4\">is <\/span><span class=\"s4\">type of antisemitism is easy to <\/span><span class=\"s4\">spot and to <\/span><span class=\"s4\">diagnose.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s4\">The a<\/span><span class=\"s4\">ntisemitism <\/span><span class=\"s4\">of the left is <\/span><span class=\"s4\">more clever<\/span><span class=\"s4\">. It hides in plain sight, disguising itself frequently as pro-Palestinian or human rights activism. Other times, left-wing antisemitism poses virtuously as opposition to the antisemites of the right. <\/span><span class=\"s4\">For example, the film \u201cIsraelism\u201d complains, <\/span><span class=\"s4\">\u201cAmerican Jewish organizations have spent the last decade pouring millions of dollars into smearing and marginalizing human rights advocates\u2026 trying to brand Palestinian protest as antisemitic when there were neo-Nazis trying to kill us in our synagogues!\u201d<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> according to a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.standwithus.com\/review-israelism\"><span class=\"s5\">review<\/span><\/a><span class=\"s4\"> from StandWithUs. (Notably, the film was <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/oberlinsfp\/p\/CzmpXM4rily\/\"><span class=\"s5\">screened at O<\/span><span class=\"s5\">b<\/span><span class=\"s5\">erlin<\/span><\/a><span class=\"s4\"> in November of 2023<\/span><span class=\"s4\">, just a month and a half after the October 7 attack in which 1200 Israelis were killed by <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Hamas<\/span><span class=\"s4\">.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s4\">This <\/span><span class=\"s4\">attempt to promote one brand of antisemitism<\/span><span class=\"s4\">,<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> even while <\/span><span class=\"s4\">using a critique of <\/span><span class=\"s4\">a different <\/span><span class=\"s4\">form<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> of antisemitism <\/span><span class=\"s4\">as a shield, <\/span><span class=\"s4\">is what we see in <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Professor <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Matthew Berkman<\/span><span class=\"s4\">\u2019s <\/span><span class=\"s4\">course. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s4\">T<\/span><span class=\"s4\">he assertion that Jews, or those who \u201csympathize\u201d with Jews, claim perennial victimhood <\/span><span class=\"s4\">in order to further malevolent ends <\/span><span class=\"s4\">forms<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> the basis of a great deal of antisemitism<\/span><span class=\"s4\">; the \u201cvictimhood\u201d canard is <\/span><span class=\"s4\">a straw man set up to demonize Jews<\/span><span class=\"s4\">. <\/span><span class=\"s4\">(For one example, see <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.camera.org\/article\/politico-punch-card-cartoon-absurdly-suggests-israel-gets-a-free-pass\/\"><span class=\"s5\">h<\/span><span class=\"s5\">e<\/span><span class=\"s5\">re<\/span><\/a><span class=\"s4\">.) <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Yet that is <\/span><span class=\"s4\">the very same assertion that is being made in the course description itself. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s4\">The Oberlin administration claims the course is designed to oppose antisemitism. That is partially correct, but it also <\/span><span class=\"s4\">serves to <\/span><span class=\"s4\">operate as a <\/span><span class=\"s4\">smokescreen<\/span><span class=\"s4\">. To understand this requires an acknowledgement that antisemitism can take different forms, and that antisemites of different stripes can at times come together (as when <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/race-and-ethnicity-racial-injustice-david-duke-a97b8b2d48c163c5965c2574ccbbe3d3\"><span class=\"s5\">David Duke<\/span><\/a><span class=\"s4\"> called Ilhan Omar \u201c<\/span><span class=\"s4\">the most<\/span> <span class=\"s4\">important <\/span><span class=\"s4\">M<\/span><span class=\"s4\">ember of <\/span><span class=\"s4\">the US <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Congress<\/span><span class=\"s4\">\u201d) and can at other times operate in opposition to each other, depending on what best suits their needs. <\/span><span class=\"s4\">The pretense of opposing antisemitism, but only opposing antisemitism from the right, can serve to bolster the credentials of those who themselves promulgate a different flavor of antisemitism. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s4\">In light of<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> the course description\u2019s obvious opposition to right-wing antisemitism, some may be tempted to give the course the benefit of the doubt. But a quick look at the history of the instructor, <\/span><span class=\"s4\">someone who<\/span><span class=\"s4\">, according to Canary Mission,<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> has himself been a <\/span><span class=\"s4\">long-time <\/span><span class=\"s4\">member of a left-wing<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/canarymission.org\/individual\/Matthew_Berkman\"><span class=\"s5\">antisemitic group<\/span><\/a><span class=\"s4\">, <\/span><span class=\"s4\">should quickly put any such doubt to rest. <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Even as the course, according to its description, knocks down one antisemitic trope \u2013 that of Jews possessing supernatural powers \u2013 it promotes a different one: that Jews fallaciously claim victimhood for political gain. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s4\">Since the time when Oberlin made news <\/span><span class=\"s4\">because of<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetower.org\/3012-oberlin-professor-claims-israel-was-behind-911-isis-charlie-hebdo-attack\/\"><span class=\"s5\">p<\/span><span class=\"s5\">rofessor who<\/span><\/a><span class=\"s4\">, among other things, blamed Israel for the September 11 attack on the US, t<\/span><span class=\"s4\">he <\/span><span class=\"s4\">new <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Oberlin administration<\/span><span class=\"s4\">, led by President <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Carmen <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Twillie<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> Ambar<\/span><span class=\"s4\">,<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> seemed to have made strides in combatting antisemitism. With a <\/span><span class=\"s4\">few<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> of worst actors having departed the campus<\/span><span class=\"s4\"> under various ci<\/span><span class=\"s4\">r<\/span><span class=\"s4\">cumstances<\/span><span class=\"s4\">, President <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Ambar <\/span><span class=\"s4\">issued a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oberlin.edu\/president\/crisis-middle-east\"><span class=\"s5\">decent statement<\/span><\/a><span class=\"s4\"> regarding the October 7 attack on Israel and recently blocked a terror-supporting speaker that a student group had attempted to bring to the campus. In the Spring of 2024 when antisemitic campus protests rocked the country, <\/span><span class=\"s4\">the protests at <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Oberlin <\/span><span class=\"s4\">were<\/span><span class=\"s4\">, in comparison, mild, and Oberlin <\/span><span class=\"s4\">stayed out of the news. <\/span><span class=\"s4\">But <\/span><span class=\"s4\">now, <\/span><span class=\"s4\">the Oberlin administration\u2019s vision <\/span><span class=\"s4\">seems once again <\/span><span class=\"s4\">to be occluded when it comes to left-wing antisemitism<\/span><span class=\"s4\">, and Professor Berkman\u2019s course threatens to bring the school back to the <\/span><span class=\"s4\">Karega<\/span> <span class=\"s4\">era.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A
