The Spin

Narrative A

Jewish lives, futures, and well-being are at stake in American universities. The kind of virulent antisemitism some of their campuses have displayed in recent months is an eye-opener. And if all that is being funded by generous billionaires — not the least, Jewish ones — then it surely is time for these donors to rethink their endowments. Are they comfortable being associated with such rhetoric?

Narrative B

While antisemitism, like many other forms of hate, is a problem that must be solved, abandoning and arm-twisting educational campuses isn't the way to do it. These universities, which ought to be the playground of multiple ideas, philosophies, and world-views, must be protected.
