I don't thing Israel should show itself with the same mindset. Quite apart from concern about any concern about foreign political effects were Israel to condition a visit on not speaking in RamAllah as well, I think the Israel group should make no stipulation at all, but invite the Palestinians to pitch in if they would like to make the gesture as a contribution to a peaceable atmosphere. Whether they are willing to make such a gesture is their own business. > >> Hi, > >> > >> I just read this morning that Richard Stallman will not come to > >> Israel due to pressure from the Palestinians who sponsor his > >> visit. > >> You can read it here: > >> http://www.calcalist.co.il/internet/articles/0,7340,L-3519167,00.h > >> tml?dcRef=ynet > >> > >> My question: I'm pretty sure that hotel + ticket is not such a > >> huge price.
