European academics for boycotting Israel

More than 400 European lecturers have signed petitions calling for boycotting Israel, academically because of its crimes committed against the Palestinians in the occupied territories.

The London- based al-Sharq al-Awsat daily issued on Tuesday said that among the signatories of these petitions are ten Israeli lecturers who work in the European universities.

The two British university lecturers Professor Steven Ron and Hillday Ron started this campaign against Israel. Ron said in contrary to world free states, Israel does not understand except the language of force and "we scientists -- we only own our science -- and we have to recruit it in the battle to avoid the death campaign launched by Israel against the Palestinians."
