Klien Calls For Boycott of Israel

We could not agree more! It's about time someone in America, whose name lets her off the sticky hook of antisemitism, actually said what many more of us have been thinking and saying for years now.

I am not, nor have I ever been, a antisemite nor anti-Jewish. I have no patience with anyone who is. Nevertheless, I am not anti-Arab or Muslim either.

If we cannot, as Americans, be fair brokers of peace in that region, we should shut the hell up!

 

Author Naomi Klein Calls for Boycott of Israel

Bestselling author Naomi Klein on Friday took her call for a boycott of Israel to the occupied West Bank village of Bilin, where she witnessed Israeli forces clashing with protesters. “It's a boycott of Israeli institutions, it's a boycott of the Israeli economy," the Canadian writer told journalists as she joined a weekly demonstration against Israel's controversial separation wall. "Boycott is a tactic . . . we're trying to create a dynamic which was the dynamic that ultimately ended apartheid in South Africa," said Klein, the author of "The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism."
