good places - good people
Just a quickie today. Sean says…

In the news MV Rachel Corrie still heading for Gaza and Israel insisting it will be stopped.
Check Haaretz for updates.
UPDATE: MV Rachel Corrie intercepted.
Sean sent me this image from this afternoon’s demo in Kobe:
He also sent me this information about boycotting Israeli goods, and companies that support Israel: BOYCOTT ISRAEL. Another good reason to stop going to Starbucks and visit some decent independant Kyoto cafes instead!! And if you are thinking that boycotts don’t have any effect then please read this: Consumer Boycotts & Their Impact. For more perspective on all the general situation please read this 10,000 Things post here.
