Re: “Be careful what you’re supporting” (March 21, 2012)

With criticism of IAW noted, I would like to do nothing more than pose a simple question: is any government above criticism? While there are some who find that Israel is unique among all nations, those who support human rights note that Israel is a state just like any other; they are not above criticism any more than our own government. As for those who claim that the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement is anti-Semitic: do sanctions against North Korea mean that we hate all ethnically Korean people? Of course not. Something to chew on.
