[QUOTE="Aldebaran, post: 74219263, member: 251418"] Visiting her grandmother rather than grandstanding at some event where she gets to make some kind of speech in front of a crowd condemning Israel is hardly abandoning a principle. I've got relatives in states where gun laws are very restrictive. Should I not visit them on the principle that I don't like their laws? Or are family relationships more important than bad-mouthing the place they live? Then visiting her grandmother was clearly not high on her list of priorities. Condemnation and boycotting comes first. Who do you think her Twitter account is meant to be viewed by?

It would kill a piece of me. I have decided that visiting my grandmother under these oppressive conditions stands against everything I believe in--fighting against racism, oppression & injustice.
