In this time of humanitarian emergency and criminality, the enraged voices of the people must be heard above the tsunami of state propaganda controlled by Israel and its geopolitical supporters in the Global West. It is no longer necessary or useful to debate whether this spectacle of horror satisfies the legal definition of ‘genocide.’ Lawyers and bureaucrats can indefinitiely prolong debate while children daily die and homes of previously abused persons continue to be destroyed. We are all responsible to act now to stem the high tide of Palestinian blood flowing across a still passive human terrain.

As a Freudian psychoanalyst, I see a steep regression among people of power, influence, and silent collusion in sectors of society, in a range of organizations. The steep regression is a total loss of the capacity to have a constant sense to see all other humans as human. This sadism towards Palestinians seems to me the most cruel act in all human history: perpetrated by a well-educated, highly informed, economically comfortable population of Israel, by over 90% approval by Israel’s citizens across the political spectrum,of all the massacres against Palestinians. This is a public presumably knowledgeable about the Nuremberg Code and of individual responsibility, the requirement to NOT follow criminal, homicidal orders. It’s psychotic, psychopathic behavior in people who are not individually psychotic or psychopathic. It’s a nightmare of entitlement, exceptionalism, of utter brutality, hypocrisy. And irony: the closeness of Israel and Germany — n either learning one thing from “Never Again”, the blindness of Biden et al — Biden who lost three children to premature death and who has promoted and facilitated the killing of children in his US border separation policy and in his arming Israel.

Penny Pritzker is at the center of the antisemitism drama at Harvard, where she serves as the senior fellow of the Corporation which presides over the university’s endowment. She essentially purchased the position in 2021 with a $100 million donation to build a new wing of the school’s economics department. A year later, she oversaw the appointment of Claudine Gay as Harvard president.
For years, Pritzker has been one of the most identifiable faces of the Democratic Party’s elite donor class. Apart from her position at Harvard, she serves as the Biden admin’s Special Representative on the Economic Recovery (read: corporate looting) of Ukraine. She is also a dedicated pro-Israel donor whose family built a Hyatt hotel on land seized from Palestinians in East Jerusalem after 1967.
Before Pritzker appointed Gay as president of Harvard, her wealth helped propel Barack Obama from obscurity to the White House in a matter of four years. Both Gay and Obama were elevated to serve as Black managerial faces of the financial elite centered within the Democratic Party, and embodied by Pritzker. Whenever a crisis in Israel-Palestine arose, neither had much space to maneuver because each owed their position to the pro-Israel donor class.
After October 7, when GOP-oriented pro-Israel forces mobilized by Likudnik vulture capitalist Bill Ackman manufactured an antisemitism scare on Harvard’s campus, Gay needed to keep Pritzker on her side. So instead of mounting a principled defense of free speech and diversity of thought, she hastily denounced Palestine solidarity slogans and presided over the creation of a politicized “antisemitism task force.”
Of course, Gay’s groveling was never going to mollify the Ackman-led mob. As Palestinians know all too well, when you give Zionists an inch, they take a mile. Together with fellow Likudnik Harvard alums like Idan Ofer, an Israeli shipping magnate whose business empire has been disrupted by Yemen’s naval blockade, and Les Wexner, a close associate of the late Harvard donor Jeffrey Epstein, Ackman claims to have bled his alma mater of $1 billion in donations.
Having leveraged their fortunes to destroy Gay, Ackman and his uber-wealthy cohorts are now gunning for Pritzker’s resignation.
Politico has aptly described this saga as “the battle of the billionaires.” As such, it offers an unusually revealing glance at the real forces that dictate American politics, and a preview of the presidential election, in which two wings of a wholly corrupted financial elite will battle to select the country’s front-facing manager while remaining firmly united in defense of Israel.

Dear Richard, greetings from Nazareth, PA.
My name is Faramarz Farbod.

I would like to request an interview with you for this show and talk to you about your life’s rich experiences and views on Gaza, Ukraine, Iran, US foreign policy, etc. If you accept, we can meet via Zoom on Monday at a time of your convenience and record it for the Tuesday airing.

I am glad to do the interview along the lines you requested but I am unavailable today. Could we defer until next Monday, Jan 15th? If so, let me know your preferred time. Most reliable to communicate with me by email.
Thanks for the reply, Richard. Much appreciated. The program airs tomorrow, so I had to have it uploaded by today. Consequently, I interviewed the historian of modern Iran Ervand Abrahamian about the ongoing situation in Palestine. He had accepted my invitation late last night. I do however host the interview program 4 times per year. The next one will air on April 9. If you are willing to do this we can conduct the interview on April 5 via Zoom. I do need your email to communicate. My email is farbodf@moravian.edu
Again thank you so much for replying and accepting the invitation. It’s an honor.
Hello again, Richard. As a result of your expressed willingness to accept my invitation, and given the urgency of the subjects, I went ahead and offered the BCTV a chance to air our interview this on Jan. 23rd (Tuesday). If you are still willing, we can meet via Zoom and record our conversation on any of the following days that works best for you: Friday (19th), Saturday (20Th), or Sunday (21st) of this month. Can you please send me your email address for ease of communication? My email is farbodf@moravin.edu
Dear Richard, are still interested in doing the interview to be aired on Jan 23 but recorded before that on Zoom? I don’t have your email address; mine is farbodf@moravian.edu
I have sent you my email address, but will do so again. or Let me know which address you use. RF
Dear Richard, I use farbodf@moravian.edu
I don’t see any emails from you in my mailbox.
