A rare bit of good news from the other side of The Pond insofar as Israel is concerned. The UCU, which had been pushing hard for an academic boycott of Israel, has been told in no uncertain tems that such a move would be discriminatory. It has, therefore, decided to drop the plan (at least for now): http://education.guardian.co.uk/higher/news/story/0,,2179786,00.html.
It's not much, but hopefully this will start the pendulum swinging in the other direction on the boycott/divestment movement...........
