Cornell professor ‘exhilarated’ by Hamas attacks apologizes after backlash: ‘It did not reflect my values’

Despite not walking back on his comments Monday, Russel Rickford has changed course, saying his pro-Hamas statements were a “horrible choice

By Alyssa Guzman

A Cornell professor who said he was “exhilarated” by the Hamas attacks on Israel has apologized for his incendiary comments, admitting his choice of words was “reprehensible.” Russel Rickford, an associate professor of history, addressed the pro-Hamas statements he made at an off-campus protest over the weekend in a statement to the school’s paper, the Cornell Daily Sun.  “I apologize for the horrible choice of words that I used in a portion of a speech that was intended to stress grassroots African American, Jewish and Palestinian traditions of resistance to oppression,” Rickford wrote Wednesday. “I recognize that some of the language I used was reprehensible and did not reflect my values.”  The educator — who “specializes in African-American political culture,” according to his biography — apologized to students for his “reckless remarks” and said he “unequivocally opposes and denounces racism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, militarism, fundamentalism, and all systems that dehumanize, divide, and oppress people.”

Lying POS. Yes, it did reflect his values. But for some reason, Cornell is taking his genocidal, Jew-hating statements seriously. So now he feels the need to backtrack.

“The university is taking this incident seriously and is currently reviewing it consistent with our procedures,” the school said in a statement to The Post.

Somewhere in the depths of her abdomen she felt a fluttering of something that in all honesty she could only describe to herself as desire. And somewhere else—in her heart, in her head—she felt the almost overwhelming exhilaration of knowing that now it had truly begun, this happiest evening of her life.

Professor Dacher Keltner says there's a reason having power can feel exhilarating. He says it triggers the "feel-good" hormone that's part of your brain's reward system. What we found in the lab [is] that power feels good, it's related to dopamine release, it's related to a better cardiovascular profile. When you are not empowered by people around you, it affects regions of the brain that activate the release of cortisol, the stress hormone, which dysregulates all of your body systems like digestion and respiratory and immune system and you die younger. People who don't feel empowered by their bosses, or their managers, or leaders or colleagues have more stress, more cortisol, they feel fearful, they take more sick days.
