The Need to Boycott Israel
(Ha'aretz) Bradley Burston - Specifics aside, the new boycott proposal tells us more than we want to know about the people who feel the need to propose it. More than anything, it tells us that for them, it doesn't really matter what Israel is, or does. There's now a democratically elected Palestinian government whose ruling party's platform endorses the extermination of the Jewish state and continued terrorism against Israeli civilians. The Palestinians are still shelling Israel with Kassam rockets, up to eight a day. They're still blowing up innocent people at felafel stands in Tel Aviv. But Israel must be punished.
