Some 700 British artists pledged to boycott Israel on Saturday in reaction to what they termed €œthe Palestinian catastrophe,€ the British newspaper Guardian reported on Saturday.

The artists, who include Roger Waters, Brian Eno, Mike Leigh, Ken Loach, Richard Ashcroft, and others, pledged that they €œwill not engage in business-as-usual cultural relations with Israel.€

#10  You notice they said 'cultural' boycott. So I take it Israeli derived medicine, medical procedures, and other products, are not on the list...

How brave of them!

#8  We categorically shun them in the name of Osfirsephorisi-II. Our culture and temple reconstruction in Wiltshire will continue without their money

Americanssupport Netanyahu and Israel

Following the headline above, the majority of Americas might consider boycotting the Hundreds of British artists who include Roger Waters, Brian Eno, Mike Leigh, Ken Loach, Richard Ashcroft, and others, that pledged they €œwill not engage in business-as-usual cultural relations with Israel.€

Artists = Business men and women who "create" non essential esthetic items, which have a limited market.

If their market dries up, good luck living on air.

#1  The so-called Oxford Oath was derived from a resolution carried by students of the Oxford Union, by 275 votes to 153, on 9 February 1933 that "this House will in no circumstances fight for its King and Country". The resolution resulting from the King and Country debate was more commonly known as the Oxford Pledge.

Twice is a farce.
