[Marxism] The Case For Boycotting Israel - CounterPunch

[Dbachmozart@xxxxxxx]

It is finally time. After years of internal arguments, confusion, and  
dithering, the time has come for a full-fledged international boycott of 
Israel.  
Good cause for a boycott has, of course, been in place for decades, as a raft 
of 
 initiatives already attests. But Israel's war crimes are now so shocking, 
its  extremism so clear, the suffering so great, the UN so helpless, and the  
international community's need to contain Israel's behavior so urgent and  
compelling, that the time for global action has matured. A coordinated movement 
 of 
divestment, sanctions, and boycotts against Israel must convene to contain  
not only Israel's aggressive acts and crimes against humanitarian law but also, 
 as in South Africa, its founding racist logics that inspired and still drive 
the  entire Palestinian problem.
