Sunday Read: Boycott The Lebanese Boycotters

Gino’s words of wisdom on the irrationality and futility of Lebanon’s trigger-happy boycotters:

Boycotting is a valuable tool and weapon in fighting tyranny and injustice. However, it should also be well thought-out, well proven and good-intentioned. The boycotting of stuff just for the sake of igniting anti-Israel emotions is unfair to the Arab cause. It taints it and makes it look stupid and inconsistent. So, a word of advice to the over-zealous: please review you evidence well, present your case thoroughly, don’t let your emotions lead you to wrong paths, don’t have double standards [..] and don’t force people to boycott what you’re boycotting.

Amen. Read the whole thing. It’s worth it.
