Boycott Israel

EU Research Collaboration With Israeli Police in Tatters After Belgian University Exit

December 11, 2017 — The Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium has announced its withdrawal from a controversial EU-funded research cooperation project with the Israeli police and the Israeli Ministry of Public Security. The decision comes as EU Foreign Ministers meet this morning with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is struggling to contain Israel’s growing international isolation as a result of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement.

The withdrawal of the Catholic University of Leuven from LAW TRAIN follows the Portuguese Justice Ministry’s withdrawal of support in response to pressure back in July 2016, in a move that was seen as a major boost in the campaign to stop the project. This latest decision puts in question the continuation of the controversial project.

Criticizing the crimes of Israel is not anti Semitism.

Is the BDS Movement Failing? Depends on Your Definition of Success.

BDS is more than winning a divestment campaign. It is part of a web of activities all aimed at education and awareness.

The success is bringing Palestine from non existence into the mainstream.

Scottish police must not meddle in Palestine protests, watchdog rules

Efforts by Scottish police to quash Palestine solidarity protests risked breaching activists’ human rights, the country’s police watchdog has ruled.

The Police Investigations and Review Commissioner (PIRC), which oversees police conduct in Scotland, upheld three complaints by the Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign in November.

Clearly, these recent developments are a setback for the Israel lobby’s strategy in Scotland of seeking to invoke state power to repress Palestine solidarity activism.

I think both of these items are (Good News and) indications that the anger in thinking is coming to a crest.

The last of the generations that experienced the events of 1946 through 1948 (The War of Independence or the Catastrophe), in both the Israelis and Palestinians cultures, is coming to a close. It happened nearly 70 ago. Most of those who would have been principals in the 1948 War, with a serious claim on the issue of the "Right - to - Return" claim.

You really don't have to be a genius to see that the population pyramid for Israel is noticeably fuller than either the West Bank or the Gaza Strip. But an unusual correlation for the West Bank and Gaza Strip is that the if you look backwards in time 24 years, the Population Pyramids begin to reshape very similar to that of Israel. The Oslo Accords happened 24 years ago,
