Why Boycott Israel?

David Linn pointed me to a very good piece in the Washington Post. It's an excellent breakdown of why the latest British journalist boycott of Israel is completely idiotic. There is one poor line that has no place in the piece:

Some of it no doubt reflects frustration from the efforts of Jewish organizations to suffocate any criticism of Israel and to hurl the epithet "anti-Semite" at anyone with an odd bent to his thinking.

Omri [who I didn't read more than a couple of times until the JIBs began] dissects that statement quite a bit, so check him out. The rest of the article, however, was very good, and worth the read.
