It ain't the blue-and-white party

The Green Party: environmentalists, anti-corporate dominance, and... anti-Israel? As it turns out, despite all that Ralph Nader ra-ra-ra, the third party of choice among college students isn't especially fond of the Jewish state -- and in the Massachusetts chapter, that goes one step further. I take a look at it in this week's Boston's Weekly Dig.

As someone who is on the fringes of the Mass. Green Party, I think the last quote in your article gets at the point: "There’s an ongoing discussion within the party on how we should treat the issue in general."

I'd like to see a follow-up article in a few months telling the story of how this issue is playing out with the Greens. Some of them think this issue can't be ignored, while others think it's a pointless distraction.
