Ha, Stay Classy Harvard:

http://observer.com/2016/04/harvard-law-student-asks-israeli-official-why-shes-so-smelly/

On Thursday, April 14, at an event hosted by the Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School, Tzipi Livni, a former Israeli minister and member of the Knesset, spoke to roughly 150 students and faculty members. During the Q & A portion at the end of the presentation, a Harvard Law School Student directed an ad hominem attack on the Israeli guest:

“My question is for Tzipi Livni—how is it that you are so smelly?” The student, a male third-year who is also the president of a student organization on campus, added, “It’s regarding your odor—about the odor of Tzipi Livni, very smelly.”


Is this acceptable Ivy League Discourse?

Why is it assumed that this was blatantly anti-Semitic rhetoric... It's entirely possible that she just has poor hygiene. What's more offensive... telling someone they smell, or them not showering and smelling up an entire room.

I walked into a local gas station the other day, and they have this new guy working there. I almost puked. Literally. I was holding my breath trying to pay for my gas.

You gotta have a serious BO issue to overpower the smell of gas at a gas station, Dam Son

It was terrible... I debated just burning down the place. Kill it with fire was my only thought.

No, the student is an idiot

She was presenting to 150 students so I imagine it was an auditorium. I find it hard to believe she smells so bad so as to stink up an auditorium.

But yeah it seems like a stretch to call it an anti-Semitic remark if all he said was that she smelled.
 
People say pakastanis and hindus smell at the time but as soon as you say someone who happens to be jew that smells, you get automatically labeled antisemetic
 
I have muslim friend that visited a mosque with mostly Pakistanis. He said it smelled like open ASS surgery in there.
