Norwegian trade union: Boycott Israel if peace negotiations fail....

Very even-handed, no? It assumes that only the Israelis are responsible for successful negotiations....

Norway's largest labor union urged the Scandinavian country on Saturday to lead an international boycott of Israel if it did not reach a peace agreement with the Palestinians.

The Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions, whose members constitute more than a third of the country's employees, said in a statement that both Israel and the Palestinians deserve to live in peace and security, and as long as this was not achieved, the Israeli government was to be held accountable.

I guess they don't realize that the Palestinians have turned down statehood in 1948, 1967, 2000, and just this past year when Olmert made a significant offer to Abbas, and didn't even get a reply.
