    While we welcome acts of protest against any manifestation of Israel's regime of colonialism and apartheid -- including the recent announcement by 150 prominent Israeli academics, writers and cultural figures to boycott Israel's settlements -- we believe that these acts must be both morally consistent and anchored in international law and universal human rights.
