I know it was printed in a ‘satire’ news paper but this is so offensive it goes deeper than just being stupider unthoughtful. Rutgers has in recent years been very pro-Palestinian and has given the Jewish on campus a hard time.... I think that context needs to be remembered as well

You are correct. I had heard of the dreadfully “pro Palestinian” atmosphere at Rutgers, I failed to link it up. because Rutgers is not something I think about much.

I suspect that has something to do with the choice of "author". As satire, they could have used Winston Churchill or FDR, but chose to use a non public figure. Not that anyone would believe it, but they could have used the bears no relationship... caveat, but that would kill using the students picture.
