PaleoJudaica Assesses the British Academic Association Calls for Boycott of Israeli Academics

Dr. James R. Davila (please call me Jim), Lecturer in Early Jewish Studies at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland writing in his blog PaleoJudaica.com is much closer to the situation than I am. Here is his conslusion:

They don't care what damage they do to the international reputation of British academics as long as they can make their own political statements. I doubt that this will do any serious harm to Israeli academics, but it will make those in Britain the object of much ridicule, and I have to say they have it coming. The membership of NAFTHE should be ashamed of their leadership.
