I discuss this with Henriette Haas, who is a retired professor of criminology and forensic psychology in Switzerland.

She also discusses the current antisemitism at several international humanitarian aid organizations in Geneva. https://www.linkedin.com/in/henriette-haas-7267046a/?skipRedirect=true
