Harvard has gone from Ivy League to ideological swamp, and a new report from NGO Monitor is pulling no punches. Titled “Advocacy NGOs in Academic Frameworks: Harvard University Case Study,” this “preliminary” bombshell lays bare how the crimson elite are cozying up to anti-Zionist NGOs that might as well be printing propaganda for terrorist groups like the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).
Yes, that PFLP, [try saying that 3 times fast] an internationally designated terrorist group.
Harvard’s academic centers, including the prestigious Harvard Law School, are apparently taking cues from groups like Al-Haq and Addameer, which Israel calls out as PFLP proxies. These NGOs are warping research and campus culture into a full-on anti-Zionist tilt.
Professor Gerald Steinberg, who co-authored the report with Dr. Adi Schwartz, isn’t mincing words: “The report demonstrates the major contribution from prominent advocacy NGOs to the atmosphere of propaganda and anti-Semitism at Harvard, particularly through frameworks claiming human rights agendas.”
He’s sounding the alarm on “close cooperation” between these NGOs and Harvard’s academic programs, warning that this blurring of scholarship and activism is a five-alarm fire for academic integrity. Oh, and he’s got a kicker: “In this context, it is important to highlight the urgent need for transparency regarding funding for the NGOs and these Harvard academic frameworks.”
Take the Harvard François-Xavier Bagnoud Center for Health and Human Rights (FXB). Until recently, it was partnered with a West Bank institution and leans hard on anti-Zionist players like Amnesty International for its “research.”
This crew’s obsessed with Gaza, dedicating 40% of its public events to the topic. Then there’s FXB director Mary T. Bassett, who the report calls out as a problem child. Steinberg and Schwartz write, “A review of her publication record reflects the absence of any expertise on health issues in conflict zones, in general, or regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in particular.” Yet, she’s out here pushing an anti-Israel agenda, like her since-deleted FXB website post just one week after Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, slaughter, moaning about “the potential genocide facing civilians in Gaza.”
Yes, she was worried the, you know, Joooze! would retaliate after Hamas slaughtered 1,200 innocent Israelis, mostly civilians, and kidnapped 251 more, most of whom were raped, beaten, starved and many murdered in captivity.
Funny how genocide works when it comes to Gazans: their population increased since 1948 going from around 60 to 80 thousand back then to around 2.1 million this year. Somehow Gazan genocide works in reverse.
Over at Harvard Law’s International Human Rights Clinic (IHRC), it’s no better. They’re feeding research to a U.N. commission accused of anti-Semitic bias and employing instructors with ties to Amnesty International, which legal experts and Israeli officials slam for peddling “anti-Semitic blood libels.”
The clinic’s basically a pipeline for NGO advocacy, with the report noting, “The clinic prides itself on finding jobs for its alumni at a variety of NGOs around the globe.” Translation: it’s a factory for churning out anti-Zionist foot soldiers.
This all comes as Harvard’s grappling with its reputation as a hotbed of anti-Semitism dressed up in progressive piety. President Trump didn’t hold back last month, blasting on Truth Social: “Harvard is an Anti-Semitic, Far Left Institute, as are numerous others, with students being accepted from all over the World that want to rip our Country apart.”
He called it a “Liberal mess” and a “threat to democracy.”
Harvard’s interim president Alan Garber tried to clean up the mess in April with a 300-page report on campus anti-Semitism, complete with an apology for failing Jewish students post-Oct. 7. “I am sorry for the moments when we failed to meet the high expectations we rightfully set for our community,” Garber said, admitting the university didn’t protect Jews like other minorities. He promised to make Harvard a place “where ideas are welcomed, entertained, and contested in the spirt of seeking truth; where argument proceeds without sacrificing dignity; and where mutual respect is the norm.”
Noble words, but with NGOs like Al-Haq and Addameer pulling strings, good luck with that.
If you enjoy my blog, feel free to toss a virtual coffee my way on Buy Me a Coffee – it’s like a high-five with caffeine, and coffee keeps me focused. No pressure, it's your call.
Look, Harvard’s not just a school—it’s a cultural juggernaut. When it’s this deep in bed with groups tied to terrorist proxies, it’s not just a campus problem; it’s a national one. Time to shine a light on this mess before it festers further and smelly stuff bubbles up to the top.
