I would like to point out the footnote in the invitation:
The organizers of the event would like it to be known that they are in full support of the rights of Palestinians. In particular, the organizers support the call for boycott of complicit Israeli institutions. Richard Stallman is following the boycott during this trip out of respect to the Palestinian hosts who invited him to the region (my enhancements). I very much dislike the politization of this event, so I'll, personally, will not attend. _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of sawyer x Sent: Sunday, July 17, 2011 11:39 AM To: Perl in Israel Subject: [Israel.pm] Dr. Richard Stallman giving a talk this Friday! 22/07 Hey all, This Friday Dr. Richard Stallman will be giving a talk on the subject of "A Free Digital Society".
