Hi, I'm an Israeli teen, and I have some problems with your approach. Though I haven't read your book, by reading your comments here I do feel like I've got a good enough idea about your point of view, and my problem is with your support of BDS. I myself don't have a strong opinion or a solution for the conflict, but I think that by "punishing" the civilians of Israel with the BDS, instead of promoting your causes for welcoming peace, you create antagonism. Both you and I know that Knesset's members are not affected directly by the BDS, and although it's a factor to consider, it doesn't have the slightest effect on the fanatics and the (relatively moderate) radicals. in fact, from my point of view of the "simple civilian" it makes us think that the rest of the world is playing a game of pointing fingers to blame, and not trying to solve the problem. Thus it feels like instead of understanding our fragile situation, we're just excluded from the national community. Thanks for the response and תודה!
