In late September, 500 academics from around the world sent a letter to the EU demanding not to dilute its new guidelines limiting cooperation and funding of Israeli institutions located or operating beyond the pre-1967 borders. Among them were a number of Israeli academics.

Ishay Rosen-Zvi is one of the Israeli professors who signed the petition. “The only thing needed to end the occupation — and it’s amazing how simple it is — is to stop funding it,” he explained.

in the form of EU sanctions.

Perhaps Israel will see the writing on the wall and stop acting like an aggressive colonial occupier/apartheid state.

The West Bank doesn't belong to Israel, but poor, poor Shira wants DU to look everywhere else except where the problem really is.


Shira, you are like those poor misguided climate deniers that, when presented with factual information, ignore the data and scream about a UN conspiracy or how the President is a Kenyan or some other such drivel to distract from the obvious truth.

The truth in this matter, Shira, is that Israeli policy is at odds with the international community due to its continued policy of eating up the West Bank for Israeli colonists.


Now back to your denials...
