Public Service Announcement

Check-out this Op-Ed in the Huffington Post by the director of the org I'm workin for in Tel Aviv. He's a very nice man who studied astrophysics at Harvard before becoming the director of Israel's leading human rights organization.

In an unfortunate coincidence, my initials appear in this article as an acronym for "Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions." This, in turn, results in the sentence, "My heart shutters [at Israel]...becoming a state referred to by one of the Declaration's drafters as having a 'criminal government' deserving of BDS." I hope that's not how they feel about me at work.

Here's the piece.
