Palestinian cause

The term Palestinian cause refers to the Palestinian people's rights, human needs, purposes and objectives in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, either by Palestinians, Arabs or other international solidarity activists. Support for the cause can take the form of either violence (such as international solidarity by the Red Army) or non-violence (such as by international activists like Rachel Corrie or Vittorio Arrigoni).
Methods
There have been various calls for a boycott of Israeli products from such organisations as the International Solidarity Movement and Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions, which have been followed by union in various, mostly European, countries. Boycott calls have also been raised and induced by Academic boycotts of Israel.
