His father, Eli Davidai, is an Israeli business executive who served as General Manager of ARC, which describes itself as a “leading global advanced manufacturing service provider.”

Among other things, ARC manufactures weapons parts, including “polymer magazine for NATO Compatible weapons,” “triggers and hammers,” “precision guided munitions components,” and more.

ARC also makes parts for MCX and MPX rifles, which are used by the Israeli military.

As you probably guessed by his crybaby antics, Shai’s parents are disgustingly rich. Eli and his wife, Zohara Davidai, sponsored The Davidai Arrhythmia Center in Tel Hashomer, Israel, where Benjamin Netanyahu was fitted for a pacemaker last year.

Interestingly, as @cholent_lover exposed on X, Eli Davidai has had a long business relationship with Alan Quasha, CEO of Quadrant Management, who also serves on the Board of Directors of ARC. Quasha is an interesting character, an international businessman and a billionaire venture capitalist.

Quasha has been involved in everything from Harken Energy (where George W. Bush was accused of insider trading as he sat on Harken’s Board) to dealings with the Saudis, US intelligence, and even the Clintons.

Quasha is also the founder of Quadrant Security Strategies, which “makes equity investments in innovative and emerging private companies that support US National Security.”

“Futhermore, the disgraceful Shai Davidai publically called us Judenrat Kapost, and told us we would be on ‘the last train to Auschwitz.’ We do not feel safe with this professor still teaching on campus, having access to the Jewish community spaces we cherish, much less portraying himself as a valiant protector and spokesperson of Jews on campus while insulting our ancestors’ memory. Almost every suspended Jewish student lost family members in the Holocaust.”

Terrorism is actually not an ideology.

Also demanding an end to genocide is not, in fact, supporting terror. This bozo is wrong on all three counts.

He's a business school teacher so probably more like DavidLinearRegression.

"Shai Davidai is Assistant Professor in the Management Division of Columbia Business School."

Yep. That tracks. The most ghoulish are always going to be found in the business school.

Every he said in that tweet is correct. It doesn’t apply to the people protesting in support of Palestine though.
