I thought that one of the young men had been returned to Israel.
And I don’t understand the reason for the boycott. There is absolutely no question that the boys WERE smuggling drugs, and they have admitted that they thought that they were indeed smuggling but just thought that it was something less obnoxious (but equally asur). The Japanese criminal justice system, while harsh, does not discriminate against Jews and it is very likely that the other two young men will eventually able to be sent to Israel to serve the balance of their sentence. (Remember that Japan didn’t turn a single Jew over to the Nazis and while the treatment of Jews in Shanghai was harsh, it was far better than the treatment given every other European civilian whom they interned.)
I’d prefer to boycott REAL anti-Semites like the rasha who rules Venezuela and the Arab regimes who let their citizens fund terrorism.
