Sign the Letter to British Journalists

fight the boycott! | 28.04.2007 12:36

Recently, the British National Union of Journalists passed an outrageous resolution that urges a boycott of Israeli products. the resolution "violates the basic tenet of journalism - objectivity."


What makes this resolution even more insidious is that it follows on the heels of similar resolutions by other British professional unions in recent years. These resolutions all have the same goal: maliciously undermining Israel.

This resolution, like the others, deliberately disregards key facts of the complex Arab-Israeli conflict, including Hezbollah's aggression against Israel in July 2006 and its seizure of Israeli soldiers from sovereign Israeli territory.

It is more critical than ever that we take a stand. Please sign the letter to the NUJ.  http://support.adl.org/site/Survey?SURVEY_ID=2080&ACTION_REQUIRED=URI_ACTION_USER_REQUESTS

If it's a boycott of Israeli products then why should we resist it?

That nation has been robbing its neighbours of essentials such as water (see : Golan Heights) for years.
Thank God someone is now standing up against their pursuit of market monopoly.
