Israel Boycotters Making a "Mistake," Sending Bad Message to Palestinians, Says Israel's UK Ambassador
(CNN) Mick Krever - Proponents of a boycott on Israeli goods are making a "mistake," Israeli Ambassador to the UK Daniel Taub told CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Thursday. "They're sending a message to the Palestinians...that you don't need to be sitting at the negotiating table." The ambassador denied that divestment was going "mainstream," citing tech giants like Google and Microsoft "straining at the leash" to work in Israel.
