Time for a New Divestment Campaign From South Africa to Israel Gray, Kevin Alexander http://www.counterpunch.org/gray01192009.html Publisher:  CounterPunch Date Written:  19/01/09 Year Published:  2009   Resource Type:  Article/Report/Letter We must see Israel with the same eyes as we saw South Africa in the apartheid years # as a racist nation deserving of international isolation and sanctions. Abstract:  What is the moral stand, and what must we do to press the government to take it? First, we must see Israel with the same eyes as we saw South Africa in the apartheid years # as a racist nation deserving of international isolation and sanctions. Second, we must demand that the United States end its $30 billion a year military support to the country. Third, we should organize, confront and demand that public bodies such as universities, local and state governments divest their portfolios from companies that do business in or with Israel. Fourth, we should identify and boycott those companies that do business with and in Israel. Fifth, we should call for a cultural boycott of Israel, and boycott those artists who perform in the country.
