I've been been sickened to see how the IDF handled the Freedom Flotila ships. I am hoping that there will be some kind of protest in Dundee and was wondering if you had any details of it yet if there is going to be one. Hi.

"In 2005, the PGFTU called for the international community to engage in a campaign of Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israel." Nice way to check the organisation you use as the basis for your argument. So LFI work on a narrow policy area but this group should be criticised for not campaigning on a wide and diverse area. Not even a good troll. See the Wikipedia article on PGFTU.

LFI campaign on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, we are opposed to settlements and call for a two state solution with just compensation for Palestinian refugees. P.S. The Palestinian General Federation of Trade Unions work with Histardut is just one example of the many good cross-border initiatives that are promoting peace and reconciliation out there, a boycott doesn't help anybody.

My point is that you are hypocritical to be calling for a boycott of Israel when you live in the UK. If you are opposed to the practices of Israel you sure as hell should be opposed to the practices of China, the Gulf states and the UK. As I said before, you should get your own house in order first.

Your own country is responsible for the deaths of far more civilians in those countries in the past 8 years than Israel is responsible for in the 60 years of its existence. How about you get your own house in order before telling others how to act. And why don't you call for a boycott of Chinese goods and oil while you are at it considering the heinous human rights records of China and the Gulf states.
