Harvard student apologizes for calling Livni a 'smelly Jew'

The student's question represents the height of rudeness, and should be severely condemned - but he/she did NOT call Livni a "smelly Jew," i.e., the student did NOT employ the word "Jew" in posing his/her question - hence, the title is misleadingly inciteful.

And, yes: It would have been interesting to learn the NAME of the student.

Regards,

Sorry, but her ‘smelly’ insult is straight of ‘Der Sturmer’, and is often used as an insult of Muslims to Jews in the middle east. So, you are not only wrong, but very wrong.—

“And, yes: It would have been interesting to learn the NAME of the student.”

In another thread, someone posted her name. First name was ‘Aya’ and she is the head of a Muslim group at Harvard.

Here is the post from the other thread:

SEE BELOW THE HARVARD STUDENT WHO ASKED LIVNI

“How is it that you are so smelly?”

She is on a Soros fellowship and is president of the
HARVARD MUSLIM LAW STUDENTS ASSOCIATION.

She worked for Google during the “Arab Spring.”

The Harvard Muslim Law Students Association is a student-run organization that serves Muslim law students by acting as a nexus of community-building, increasing awareness of issues that particularly impact Muslims, and organizing events to foster relationships between Muslim students across Harvard.

Aya was born in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia to Sudanese parents. Her family migrated to the United States in 1999 to escape political and economic turmoil at home.
Inspired by youth-led protest movements in the US and abroad, Aya spent two summers curating technologies for activists during the Arab-Spring protests as a Google intern.

She helped to launch the Speak2Tweet product in 2012, which allowed protesters across Sudan and Ethiopia to tweet using their analog phones despite sporadic Internet connectivity.
As a Quest Bridge Scholar at the University of Pennsylvania, Aya conducted independent research on Islamic finance with Professor Andrew Lamas, served as chair of UMOJA, an umbrella organization for student groups of the African Diaspora, and was a columnist forThe Daily Pennsylvanian. Upon graduation, she worked with the Asian Women’s Leadership University (AWLU) Project as a Henry Luce Scholar in Malaysia
Aya is pursuing a joint JD at Harvard Law School and a Master’s in public affairs at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University. She is a student-attorney for the Harvard Legal Aid Bureau, president of the Muslim Law Students Association, and a research assistant to Professor Intisar Rabb. She hopes to pursue a career in litigation and community organizing in Muslim and Muslim-American communities to challenge national security policies that violate civil rights and civil liberties.
