Is there more that he did not post? > The following text: They are unhappy that I offered to give talks at Israeli universities The problem is with universities, not Israelis. Stallman did not explain further why, but as someone familiar with the boycott, I can safely say that's the reason. He might still give a talk in Israel which will not be held at a university, and I'm pretty sure Israelis are invited to come see him speak in Palestine (I know I'll be going myself).
