Why else would they choose Hamas, who openly call for Israel's destruction and death to all Jews? Or is that of no consequence to you? Are you now saying that Israel in not allowed to defend itself?

I'm late commenting this but I want you to know how thankful I am that you are talking about this. Rarely do any celebrities or even newscasters speak out against the crimes Israel commits. I am a Palestinian and watching the years go by with various tragedies in Palestine I wonder if anyone over here in US knows about what is going on; it feels as if the world has forgotten about us.

Consider the situation in Zimbabwe, Iran or Burma. Where are you all then? It’s very sad that Israel is the only country singled out for boycotts and this kind of abuse.

By the way, are you planning on protesting films produced by Palestinian Arabs at a film festival too? Equal opportunity, after all. and we know you support that concept. What about their Peace movement? The only movement we saw in Israel were rockets flying at civilians. Let me remind you Ms. Fonda, you are an accomplished performer, that does not give you any credibility in politics. On the contrary, your history is full of regrets for stupid actions with regard to politics, let's not bring them all up here. You might be best advised to do what you know how to do well, sell exercise tapes, tout face creams, get an acting gig if you can and let people use their intelligence to make decisions instead of indulge in covert censorship that you call artistic protest. Artistic my foot. Try fixing up the mess in the US first, you certainly have enough to choose from there.

There are people going on with their lives and movies being made. If you demanded a similar action against any festival focusing on say New York or London filmmakers, you would not be accused of bigotry.
