    Its extremely complex and interrelated, and apartheid isn’t a incidental “nice to have” secondary issue to resolve “later”, to many people its the direct cause of the violence that is dominating the news and breaking our hearts.

      thanks for the adjacent lecture but it’s not complex at all

      People have spoken out against the Israeli regime many times before without being asked to resign

      The whole issue is timing of the comment

          Anytime before the attack, though if it was just before they would still have to retract

          In a month or two it’ll be fine again
