זה בדיוק התשובה שקיבלתי ממנו-מילה במילה, כשכתבתי לו,יום אחרי ההודעה שלו.

מינוס הרצון להגיע לישראל -הייתי רוצה לחשוב שהלחץ הציבורי השפיע, אבל אני בספק.

Subject: Re: RMS Cancels Lectures In Israel

I don't advocate a blanket boycott of Israeli universities, but I am
not going to campaign against it either.  I see where they are coming
from: Israel's occupation policies are horrible.  Nonviolent protests
are crushed with persistent brutality.  (See
http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Columnists/Article.aspx?id=221897.)

Palestinians who are against violence are looking desperately for
some method of nonviolent resistance.  I can't blame them for it
even if I don't agree entirely with the details.  Thus, I decided
to follow their policies in the trip they organized.

I wish I had discussed the issue in advance and avoided
having to cancel a plan I had agreed to.

I will give at least one talk in Israel, at a non-university venue,
and I am hoping more can be arranged.
