Harvard's Stephen Walt will be Stepping Down in Disgrace After Notorious "Israel Lobby" Paper Published


Academic Dean of Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, Stephen Walt, will be stepping down from his position as Dean following the publication of a paper that he co-wrote describing a gigantic Jewish conspiracy to control US foreign policy. His paper was immediately endorsed by former Grand Wizard of the KKK, David Duke, and an assortment of Islamic extremist groups. The entire affair as proven a huge embarrassment to Harvard University who have removed the University logo from the paper, posted a strong disclaimer disassociating the school from the paper, and now have announced Mr. Walt’s departure from the Deans desk in the coming months. Mr. Walt released the paper only a few months after Harvard’s Kennedy School received a $20 million donation from Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin Abd al-Aziz Al-Saud of Saudi Arabia, and only a few weeks after the departure of Harvard President Larry Summers, who was known to oppose such shenanigans. Harvard denies any connection between Walt's stepping down and the paper in question, any connection between the paper and the $20 million dollar donation from the Saudi prince, and any connection to the timing of Summers departure. You make the call.

  1. Walt + Saudi money = ??? Well you do the math, but I have my suspicions.

  2. Just because Walt is a realist power whore doesn't mean what he's essentially saying about AIPAC isn't true. You cant ignore what it is or what it does, especially when its phony charges of Anti-semitism and kneejerk discreditations of respectable professionals make AIPACs actions explicit. It's comparable to the mafia the way it does business and few who study this would even need to cite "The Israel Lobby" paper.

    By the way, Walt's resignation had been planned and was supposed to happen before the paper was even published. He didn't want to work with fucking Alan Dershowitz anymore. Just do a LexisNexis search, you'll find out how backward your recount of the facts really was. It's far more shameful than anything Walt or Mearshimer ever published.
