Can someone help me understand this guy.. Omar Barghuoti?
He is a doctoral candidate at Tel-Aviv University, in Israel, and yet, as you can see from his Wikipedia entry, he is a "founding member of the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel" and one of his publications deals with what he calls the "Israel's Apartheid".
Now, let's see again - where is he obtaining his Ph.D.? Israel? So, what is this deal about Israel's "apartheid" when he is at an Israeli university side by side with Israelis? And what about the call for boycott when he himself is enjoying what an Israeli academic and cultural institution has to offer?
(By the way, thousands of Palestinians learn at different universities in Israel)
This is just one example of the cynical behavior of the Palestinian leadership, one that calls for their people to be "martyrs" by becoming suicide bombers, one that calls for boycott or destruction of Israel, while they themselves act the exact opposite way of what they preach.
Perhaps the Palestinian people should be driven by their acts rather then by their sound-bytes?
