Report: Harvard Student Group Invited Anti-Israel Professor Who Once Appeared With Hamas Senior Leader
Noura Erakat, an associate professor of Africana Studies at Rutgets University, once appeared on an online workshop with senior Hamas leader Ghazi Hamad.
The New York Post reported that a Harvard student group invited a Rutgers anti-Israel professor to speak. The anti-Israel professor once appeared with a Hamas leader.

Antisemite Noura Erakat proudly participated on a panel with senior Hamas commander Ghazi Hamad who promised “a million more October 7th.” So naturally, she is speaking at Harvard on Monday.

Erakat co-edits pro-Palestine magazine Jadaliyya.
Ereakat is also the niece of Saeb Erekat, “a Palestinian diplomat and senior member of the Palestinian Liberation Organization, and for decades the authority’s chief negotiator with Israel.”
Noura Erakat, an associate professor of Africana studies at Rutgers University in New Jersey, was scheduled to speak on “We Charge Genocide; The Potential and Limits of International Law,” at the school’s Center for Middle Eastern Studies — after months of making anti-Israeli speeches.
The lecture by the controversial academic, who is also a human rights attorney, came amid mounting accusations that Harvard has failed to tackle antisemitism on its campus in the wake of the Hamas massacre of hundreds of innocent Israelis on October 7.
Harvard’s Center for Middle Eastern Studies invited Erakat to speak at the event “We Charge Genocide: The Potential and Limits of International Law.”
It was scheduled at Harvard from 6 PM to 8 PM. Only those with a Harvard ID could attend.
Erakat spread more anti-Israel rhetoric after Hamas invaded Israel, slaughtered thousands, and kidnapped hundreds:
But Erakat’s speech appears likely to inflame tensions. From the beginning of the Hamas atrocities committed against Israelis, Erakat has blamed Israel alone for the violence.
“Any condemnation of violence is vapid if it does not begin & end with a condemnation of Israeli apartheid, settler colonialism, and occupation,” Erakat posted on X to her more than 176,000 followers on Oct. 7.
A few days later, on Oct. 16, she tweeted to President Biden “…@POTUS repeated the lie about beheaded [Israeli] babies [by Hamas], directed US diplomatic corps to avoid calls for ceasefire [between Israel and Hamas], & backs Israel’s genocidal warfare [in Gaza]…”
I’m trying to find a video of her workshop with Hamad. Here is her speech at the anti-Israel rally in Philadelphia.

You can talk to anybody.
I have to agree. If I feel that it’s acceptable for Tucker Carlson to interview Putin, then that pro-Hamas speaker should be allowed. Having someone speak doesn’t mean you agree with them or support them, just their right to say the stupid things they say.
I’m a conservative Jew and I believe people should be allowed to expose themselves as who and what they are in public.
And I would agree, IF and only IF, the Harvard branch of Hamas allowed pro Israel speakers to speak unmolested.
The major difference being that if Tucker’s interview would have taken place in the US, where Putin couldn’t have them shot, the left’s hecklers would have shut that down too.
I’m so sorry for not checking, prior to posting the above, whether truth may have already outrun conjecture.
Extending classical liberal rights to Hamas and BLM Marxist-Fascists in 2024 America ends a few years later with a trip to a dank cellar and complimentary garrotte necklace.
“The Titanic is unsinkable.”
That’s exactly why they invited her of course. They see that as a mark of value.
Noura Erakat, is another example of an Affirmative dud with a useless degree & a pale to boot.
More evidence of the discriminatory and hostile environment in lawsuits filed by Jews against the University.
This lady is pro-genocide and sexual atrocity and she flaunts the principles she pretends to stand for, to willing dupes and fellow haters.
When Jew haters are paid to openly spew with impunity, it shows how far there is to go. Bet she loves America, too.
Workshop: How to make fertilizer bombs in your garage, perhaps?
Directions for travel to 72 Virgin Street,
Wait … wait … don’t tell me … don’t tell me …
And a mob of Jewish students didn’t appear to shut it all down and threaten the participants?
How did I guess that?
My first observation exactly.
Queensberry, 0; thugs 348 and counting.

Yup, that anti-semitism task force is really making huge strides in improving campus dialogue. Who are they going to invite next, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad? He’s got some really ground breaking ideas about the Israel-Palestine conflict, I hear.
