Israeli citizens thank Tiago Rodrigues for boycotting the Israel festival.

May 2018

 
Dear Tiago Rodrigues 

 

We are Citizens of Israel who support the Palestinian call for boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) on Israel. We would like to thank you for your sharp statement, adopting a moral stance and boycotting the Israel festival. 

 

Nowadays, when more than 100 unarmed protesters have been sniped by Israeli forces, supporting the Palestinian Civil society’s call for BDS and not taking part in Apartheid is a huge step towards ending injustice. 

 

We thank you for understanding that cultural events such as the one you boycotted are used to merely whitewash Israel’s crimes and human rights violations. We hope more people will follow in your footsteps for a just and humane society for all. 

 

Sincerely, 

Boycott! Supporting the Palestinian BDS call from within
