Palestine, and the livin' ain't easy

Israeli boycotters strike Tel Aviv opera
by PHILIP WEISS on November 16





The ground really is shifting. Here's incredible video from Israel of Israeli boycott activists trying to submarine the Cape Town Opera House's performance of "Porgy and Bess" in Tel Aviv last night. Boycott apartheid! they sing. Note the big turnout of activists, the inspiring songs. Ynet reports
40 activists. Wow. This is inside Israel. And it's civil society: people of conscience around the world waking up to the humiliation and dispossession and statelessness of the Palestinians-- and seeing that they can take action.
