I`m glad to read that you are against the occupation. How ever it`s been 40 years of occupation and the hardship for the Palestinians is unacceptable. The occupation is ruled illegal and Israel is in breach of every UNSCR you can possibly think of, so what to do? Something has to be done and boycotts worked on South Africa(did they ever refer to themselves as "White Democracy"?)so why not on Israel? If you are against this brutality, then why are you against the call for a boycott? Boycotting South African sportmen and women was an effective tool, goods, services, you name it. I`m sure there were many among those groups that were against the SA apartheid system, but they took it on the chin and played their part in freeing the blacks of SA from their occupiers. SA is now a democracy and much thanks to brave South Africans themselves, so let`s be brave and bold. let`s support those that says `enough is enough`, because it is time to free those that never seen freedom. It`s a duty.
