BMJ Poll Regarding Boycott of Israeli Academic Institutions

An email from Dr Samir Amr

"I received the message below from friends in UK concerning a poll conducted by the British Medical Journal concerning boycott of Israeli academic institutes and Israeli academicians by British professional associations such as teachers, newspaper and press professionals etc. This boycott stems from the conviction of these British professionals that Israeli universities and academicians are aiding the Israel army, keeping a blind eye on its inhuman practices in the occupied Palestinian territories and even collaborating with the army on projects which harm Palestinian civilians.

The Israelis and their supporters in USA and the West are responding to this poll in large numbers making the percentage of the people voting no for boycott 90%. We have to reverse that percentage through heavy participation in this poll. It will take from you 30 seconds, unless you want to write some comments (optional). You have not to be a physician to participate. People from all walks of life are voting, why not you?"
