The following note is from a friend:
Here’s the crazy news: a new law proposal was submitted yesterday by both "left" (Kadima) and right wing parties, about the boycott against Israel. The law suggest that people who support the boycott would be fined something like $7000. Also, if a supporter of the boycott is not an Israeli citizen or not a resident, he or she cannot enter Israel for 10 years. There is more to it, you can find a short description at Ynet. Unfortunately, I didn’t find any article about it in English yet, but maybe Google translate could be helpful. Must say, I was left speechless by the news.
Editors note: The JVP blog The Only Democracy? has much more on the story here.
