Cornell hate prof a stain on the academy, and fits right in
[NYPOST] The Cornell University prof gained notoriety in the immediate aftermath of Oct. 7 by declaring that he found the terror attack ''exhilarating.''

He wasn't specific about what was more exciting to him — the slaughter of hundreds of people at a music festival, including maimed people at point-blank range, the mass hostage-taking, the burning of people alive or the horrific sexual violence.

For the committed anti-Zionist, there must be so many thrilling moments to choose from.

Afterward, Russell Rickford
…activist and associate professor specializing in the Black radical tradition…
apologized for his ''horrible choice of words.''

But his remarks at a pro-Paleostinian rally at the Ithaca Commons on Oct. 15 weren't a matter of mere vocabulary. He didn't say ''exhilarating'' when he meant to use a word that means the opposite, or something less positive.
