The Boycott of Israel back on the agenda

A teachers' union looks set to reignite the row over the boycott of Israel, which divided university lecturers last year and triggered an international storm.

The National Union of Teachers (NUT) is due to discuss a motion at its Easter conference that takes a pro-Palestinian stance on the occupation. It calls on its union to buy educational material produced by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign for use by students in schools.

The motion, which marks the 60th anniversary of the "unresolved injustice" of the "banishment of 750,000 Palestinians from their homelands", says that the campaign material "promotes an understanding of the history of this most protracted dispute in the Middle East".

I think this is the only way Israel can be pressured to stop hurting the Palestinians and the chances for peace in the ME. They are very wary of their image, and they are very wary of any economic implications of the boycott. So let's boycott Israel, what are we waiting for ?
