No comment although I have them.

I would not go so far as to cut Israelis off from medicine or clean water as they have done to Gaza, but a cultural boycott is potentially a way to bring the debate into a more public sphere. We need equally to confront what so many in the western press and politics have done on this issue. They have supported the insane idea that anyone who publicly criticizes Israel’s abuse of Palestinians is doing so out of anti-semitism. They are labeled anti-semitic even if they are Jews whose parents and relatives survived or died in Nazi concentration camps.
Sally Rooney said she would be honored to have her book translated to Hebrew but will not work with a publisher who does not distance themselves from Israel’s aparteid treatment of Palestinians.
