Have you heard of the proposed academic boycott of Israel's universities that is taking place in the UK through the University and College Union?
Do you think it is fair to condemn Israel's academics but make no mention of the genocide that is supported by the Sudanese government? Do you think it is fair to punish Israel's Universities and say nothing of the incitement to violence against Israel and Jews that takes place in Palestinian educational institutions? Do you think it is fair to sever ties with universities as a way to change a government's policies?
Please, don't be silent, tell the world you oppose the boycott!

As a 17 year old American, what do I need to get through Israeli customs? Would a letter from a parent ensuring financial support suffice?

I'd be interested to know the best books - both fiction and non fiction - that you've found about Israel and the Middle East conflict.

For fiction, I loved both 'Exodus' and 'The Haj' by Leon Uris.

As for non fiction; am still searching for my favourite... any suggestions?!

Well me and my husband and children of three have a deep desire of moving to the holy land, we are thinking of relocating to Tel Aviv or Haifa or any nice suburb , we have talked about this and we both know of the terror that happens in Israel but we don't care, the problem is, we are not Jewish nor have any Jewish family roots, we are Christians , and well we really really would like to live there, How hard is it to move there? What do we need to move there? Do we have to be Jewish? We , my family, knows Hebrew so communicating and or reading road signs is no difficulty , so any tips on how to move to Israel? Money is no problem , and would my children be able to go to school? Can i buy real estate in Israel being American? Before moving should i apply for a Visa? Thank you all very much i really appreciate this :]

I'm just waiting to find out how we end up killing "Nahoul the Palestinian Killer Bee" . . . . last time it was an Israeli real estate agent that iced Farfour - this time I bet they'll make it a religious Jew.

Anyone want to guess . . . ? :-)

Why are Palestinians so much better looking than Israelis? You know it's true.

Is it because of all the German and Slavic blood jews mixed with? I'm not saying jews are ugly, just that Palestinians are aesthetically superior, why?

Non-Religious Jews, Jew Atheists, and homosexual Jews to be citizens of the holy state? Are they going against the Torah being so liberal? Why do men in drag run around university campuses? is that not against the word of God who gave you the Promised Land?

Are they allowed to be citizens despite their sacrilegious lifestyles, to build the Israel economy? Are they just there as consumers, like Americans are to the US government?

Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has urged Syria to restart direct peace talks between the two countries. He said "I am ready to sit with you and talk about peace not war".
Do you think the syrians are serious, can they be trusted or are they even worth the effort?

PS—please leave the politics out of this question; there are plenty of other questions on this site where you can voice your political opinion. I ask you politely not to do it on this one.

With the Middle East. Just by seeing how unstable the Middle East is, it doesnt make it hard for me to believe that ISrael is gathering resources to fight. Im pro-ISrael all the way, but does anyone have any suggestions for why ISrael is getting ready for a 'huge war', which is what they are calling it.

And keeps the agreement for peace but the Palestinians are never satisfied? Israel has cooperated with the Palestinians demands and is now willing to release 250 criminals for the sake of peace?

Israel agrees to release Palestinian prisoners
JERUSALEM - Israel’s cabinet agreed on Sunday to release 250 Palestinian prisoners in the latest attempt to strengthen Western-backed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas after Hamas’s seizure of the Gaza Strip.

“I think this is a worthy gesture to make ... because we want to use any means that can reinforce moderate elements in the Palestinian Authority,” Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told the cabinet in broadcast remarks.

Olmert had pledged to free prisoners of Abbas’s Fatah movement in a June 25 summit with the Palestinian leader as part of a Western campaign to bolster the new administration he named after sacking a unity government with Hamas Islamists.
A government official said the cabinet voted 18 to 6 in favor of a motion to release 250 prisoners.

The United States and European Union have been prodding Olmert to nurture contacts with Abbas’s emergency government in the hope of resuming long-stalled peace talks.

Olmert told the cabinet that bolstering Palestinian moderates could “encourage them to move in the direction we believe can create conditions for the start of substantial dialogue.”

In a goodwill gesture last week, Israel released Palestinian tax funds it had frozen a year ago when Hamas rose to power, a move that helped enable Abbas to pay Palestinian civil servants full salaries for the first time in 17 months.

Hamas, which has rejected Western demands to recognize Israel, renounce violence and accept existing Israeli-Palestinian interim peace accords took over the Gaza Strip last month after routing Fatah in factional fighting.
