Re: FT on Israel boycott
Boycotts and resolutions - which Yoshie has elsewere denounced as
“resolutionary socialism” - are meaningless as long as the U.S.
subsidizes, arms, and protects Israel. As with petition-signing, it’s
more about making the supporter feel good about himself than actually
accomplishing anything. No Brit academics would ever endorse a
boycott of the U.S., would they? And while they’re at it, why not
boycott themselves, for joining the invasion of Iraq?
