| Cornell BDS group justifies hypocritically using Israeli web technology |
| 2013-11-28 |
| h/t Gates of Vienna Last week, the ZF and I discovered that a number of groups that push boycotts for Israel are using WiX, an Israeli web technology, on their websites. One of those was Cornell University's "Students for Justice in Palestine." People on Twitter made fun of them for their obvious hypocrisy. Finally, Cornell SJP came out with a long, nonsensical, convoluted justification for their BDS inconsistency; 1500 words of hilarious attempts to make themselves look a little less idiotic: It's like middle age rulers expelling all Jews, except Jewish doctors. |

| #2 I'd suggest that the reason they have a commercial web front end is that they're probably some sort of astroturf movement. |

| #1 I searched, and was unable to find out who the leadership of the group is. It's just a faceless group. |
