Ben & Jerry’s boycott is not in Israel
In “PA anti-BDS law could be triggered by Ben & Jerry’s Israel boycott” (July 30), the Chronicle wrote: “When Ben & Jerry’s announced last week it would stop selling ice cream in portions of Israel — the areas the company referred to as ‘Occupied Palestinian Territory’…”

Areas A, B and C are not, by any reckoning, portions of Israel. No one, including Israel, can say Areas A, B and C are Israel. I was born in Haifa; that is Israel and you will be able to buy Ben & Jerry’s there.
