Green Party And The Israel Boycott
SOME Green Party members are against the party’s boycott of Isreal:
We stand against this aspect of Green Party policy because it is the opposite of green and because it enacts an inconsistent approach to foreign policy which does not befit the country’s fourth largest political party. We seek to refute it with examples of Israel’s contribution to environmentally-friendly technologies and ways of living, and through a critique of the dominant discourse about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Conflicts aren’t enjoyable unless you demonise one side or another and who better to demonise than the Christ killers?
It’s depressing.
And now they’re screaming away about Tibet just because they saw pictures of riots on the T.V. - when it’s been going on since 1949.
I sometimes think peace campaigning is a blood sport.
