Huffington Post hired known child rapist Marc Gafni
Marc Gafni
Force Accountability from The Huffington Post by boycotting until they cut ties with known child rapist Marc Gafni of Success 3.0 Summit & Center for Integral Wisdom.
“But he (Gafni) admitted to having had a sexual relationship with another girl, when she was 13 and 14 and he was 19 and 20, studying to become a rabbi.
“I was a stupid kid and we were in love,” Gafni was quoted as saying in The Jewish Week. “She was 14 going on 35, and I never forced her.”
The woman told Rosenblatt that Gafni had “repeatedly sexually assaulted her” when he stayed at her house for the Sabbath. The rabbi also told her that she would be “shamed in the community” if she told anyone.” The Jewish Daily Forward
Huffington Post also removed my Facebook comment under Marc Gafni’s article meant to help educate readers as to who exactly Huffington Post is allowing to write for their organization. That is certainly inconsistent & contradictory language to action for a “news” organization to censor comments if they add to the conversation. Marc Gafni is talking about love in the article and his unethical and illegal “love” for an underage child is important for readers to know in order to make the best decisions based on facts.
UPDATED: Apparently “Vote with your wallet,” is just a tagline at Buycott as the site shut down the campaign BOYCOTT The Huffington Post for supporting Rapist Marc Gafni without cause or explanation (despite a similar one regarding Whole Foods which has 607 participants who have joined the boycott) . I’ve created well over 26 Buycott campaigns and the most successful has over 27,000 participants and demands that Johnson & Johnson executives be held accountable for their pathological unethical and illegal behavior that’s harming patients, consumers, employees and taxpayers alike.
Apparently the Contact us! really doesn’t generate a response from Buycott
The tangled web of unethical behavior continues:
Annie Lalla is married to Eben Pagan and have a young daughter together (whom I will protect by not posting her picture-now if only her parents would do the same.) More inconsistent & contradictory language to action from Lalla and Pagan work with and clearly support a known child rapist, Marc Gafni. When asked on Lalla’s public Facebook page how she and Pagan justify working with a known child rapist I was blocked.
Eben Pagan & Marc Gafni are on both Success 3.0 Summit Leadership (according the website)
and on the
Board of Center for Integral Wisdom together
I guess the “enlightened” don’t like to be challenged on inconsistencies and contradictions. As the same was true for Ali Shanti (aka Alexis Martin Neely) (who also has young children) and Michael Ellsberg also removed a post asking how he justifies associating with a known child rapist.
This is enough information for me to know that I would not financially support any program or company associated with Marc Gafni (no matter how many times he changes his name) Ali Shanti/Alexis Martin Neely (no matter how many times she changes her name), Annie Lalla, Eben Pagan, Ibrahim AlHusseini, Michael Ellsberg, Success 3.0 Summit, CIW or Whole Foods.
Just as there were faceless victims with Bill Cosby-please help give these victims of sexual crimes a voice: BOYCOTT The Huffington Post for supporting Rapist Marc Gafni.

Marc Gafni, previously written about on this site, for his association with Whole Foods isn’t going to go away until the public boycotts and puts pressure on the corporations that are funding the known child rapist such as Whole Foods, Huffington Post, and GAIAM TV to name a few.
Marc Gafni, nee Marc Winiarz, nee Mordechai Gafni, the thrice-divorced rabbi who has been, at times, a hero of Modern Orthodoxy, Jewish Renewal, and the Israeli spiritual renaissance, has again been caught having sexual relations with members of his latest spiritual community. And from the divorce deposition from his third wife who paints a picture of an unrepentant pathological predator:
Psychological Sickness – I think it is crucial to share that based on all that I have known of Mordechai (aka Marc Gafni) I see that he clearly has two psychological disorders which are evident and expressed in numerous ways. The most obvious is a narcissistic personality disorder. He exhibited the following characteristics which correlate with the DMS-IV diagnosis of narcissism. In the DMS, at least 5 of the following attributes are requires for diagnosis. Mordechai exhibits them all. I could give numerous examples in each category, but will refrain for lack of space and because they are just so very obvious to anyone who knows Mordechai.):
a. has a grandiose sense of self-importance – exaggerates achievements and talents.
b. Is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power and brilliance.
c. Believes that he is “special” and unique and can only associate with other special or high-status people or institutions.
d. Requires excessive admiration
e. Has a sense of entitlement – expecting especially favorable treatment or compliance with his expectations
f. Is interpersonally exploitative; taking advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
g. Is envious of others or believes that others are envious of him
h. Lacks empathy; is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others
i. Shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes.As for the antisocial (or sociopathic) personality disorder. He exhibits the following of the criteria for the DSM (of which 3 are needed for diagnosis):a. failure to confirm to social norms with respect to lawful behaviors (such as his sexual harassment in the workplace and sleeping with students and employees)
b. deceitfulness, repeated lying
c. irritability and aggressiveness (as is known by anyone who has ever worked under Mordechai, or crossed his path politically)
d. reckless disregard for safety of self or others (such as endangering himself by juggling numerous affairs at once, given his history)
e. lack of remorse; indicated by rationalizing having hurt, or mistreated others
Unfortunately, with Axis II Personality Disorders the chances for change via treatment are extremely slim; as opposed to Axis I disorders which are considered more treatable. Mental Retardation, for example, is also on Axis II, because no amount of therapy will be able to fully ‘treat’ retardation. The same is understood for Personality Disorders – they are not entirely treatable. Thus, in my opinion, the belief that Mordechai will one day be able to return to being a teacher leader of any sort is a dangerous one. I personally (and professionally) do not think that he should be “allowed” to return to any such roles at any point in the future.
From site reader Jason:
There’s lots more on Gafni’s loooooooong and sordid history of abuse and predatory behavior at these links (among others; just google GAFNI ABUSE). Be sure to read the comments; they fill in a lot of key information. (from the links he supplied below).
I knew him well back in the day and he hasn’t changed a bit. He is definitely a sociopath who has charmed and fooled and ultimately betrayed many otherwise very smart people (like John Mackey). But his supporters and sycophants all eventually wake up to the horrible truth of his darkness and complete lack of integrity; he’s been thrown out of the Jewish world, was chased out of Israel by the police, was dumped by his publisher Sounds True, was kicked out of the Integral world…the list goes on and on and on. His entire life is one scandal after another.

Reminder: This site is not qualified nor is it the goal to diagnose a person as a sociopath as the site focus is to apply those same characteristics as they relate to a corrupt business model known as The Sociopathic Business Model™ as a means to identify and prevent victimization of patients, consumers, employees and taxpayers alike.

UPDATED June 2, 2015
It should shock no one that unethical Huffington post, who hired a known child rapist, also “demoralize” their employees.
“I’ve never seen people so demoralized” is what a typical HuffPost employee usually says. Huffington Post has always been an essentially miserable place, with a workplace culture so brutal and toxic that it would meet with approval from committed sociopaths across the land. If things are getting worse there, they have to be really, really bad. Gawker
Arianna Huffington hired a serial sexual harasser and known child rapist-I’d certainly say that her business model is another poster child for The Sociopathic Business Model™ and the paper certainly took down the Buycott Campaign that was exposing the negative truth they’d rather remain hidden. It’s the internet Ms. Huffington you can’t keep shoving the company’s unethical and or illegal behavior that the company seems to have encouraged, replicated and rewarded under a rug big enough. I hope more employees (current and past) will keep exposing Huffington Post’s unethical behavior. Updated: Site and Twitter hack attempts again after a Huffington Post story that exposes the negative truth they’d rather remain hidden.
