1. Boycott the Boycotters
YB   (07.31.07)
Instead of signing a stupid paper, let them boycott the British boycotters. Less Talk More Action (* from the Scotland bank advertisement :))
2. Good ! Now, when shall we
(07.31.07)
see such heartfelt solidarity among world politicians of all colours, creeds and denominations against, for instance, a modern day Nero like Ahmadinejad ?

i love you, i respect you, i agree with you. this is the RIGHT thing to do. go after all those antisemites that hide behind zionism is racism quates to mask their hatred of jews and israel. good for you and thanks to all and everyone who has signed this petition and has taken a stand against bigotry and hate. kol hakavod!
4. There is intelligent life out there
rh ,   Modiin Israel   (07.31.07)
Just when I thought the world had gone mad and the only sane one left was me and Dershowitz this happens. Brings a ray of hope to my cynical heart. Maybe the silent majorities of the world are wakening from their apathetic slumbers. All find the documentary obsession (google video and others and watch it)

9. Brits, look back at the history, without Jews you're empty
ESK ,   Yehudah-Mountains   (07.31.07)
If you realy check the history, you will know that your pride is in vain. Any way, pride is a stink. You got much of this stink, repent !!! Now know: without the Jews, yes, the Jews, you have no academics. Without the knowledge you got from the Jews, you also have no future, no Salvation.

Thank you Alan!! The over 10K response to the 158 Brits is overwhelming. Again WELL DONE. Mark from Georgia
18. Scot - Free?
Cato ,   raanana   (07.31.07)
We must take heed of this warning and make more effort to fight the blatent racism which abounds in many aspects of our Socety. Some of our racist laws could well demand universal cesure short of a boycott.
19. Light prevaling over darkness!
Keren ,   Israel-SP   (07.31.07)

22. To All
Ghandi ,   Palestine   (07.31.07)
I hope those great people are aware of what they are doing. they are accepting the right of the Jews to have a free hand in the promised land on religious basis, they recognize the covenant between God and Abraham, accepting the presence of God, rejecting the Evolution Theory, Accepting the Creation theory, which means that : "More than 10,000 academics, including 32 Nobel laureates and 53 university presidents " should start teaching about God to avoid finding themselves in an odd position. May God bless them all.
23. #22, thats a bit of stretch
Danny   (08.01.07)
From not wanting to politically test academics before working with them to being closet creationists.
24. kol hakavod Dersh end
alan ,   Round Island   (08.01.07)
25. To Danny
Ghandi ,   Palestine   (08.01.07)
Politically, the problem gets more complicated. I do not know how the academics will move around the hook and deal with a state which has no recognized constitution, no recognized border and no recognized population, and segregates people according to what they have in their birth certificates. I think it is the time for its academics to come forward and say what is needed to be said to save the state and the whole region, this is the best way to fight the boycott.
26. The best way to defeat the UCU boycott...
David Hagadol ,   Israel   (08.02.07)
is to boycott the stinking UK altogether!
27. Hey Ghandi, Try to find even 10 Nobel Laureats in Arab world
Jorge ,   Tegucigalpa   (09.29.07)
Those who boicott Israel and the Jews do it out of blind hatred, not by reason, the so called Arab-Israeli conflict is instigated and nurtured by failed Arab regimes and the help they get comes from antisemites like the BRITS, by the way, the only reason they tolerate Arabs is not because they like them, it is because of their oil
28. Racist British Academics
Sam ,   Manchester   (11.27.09)
How long will it before anyone student who has links to or supports Israel is made to sit at the back of the class in British universities?
