    • Abstract:
      The article reports that the decision of physicist Stephen Hawking of not attending a conference which will be held in Israel because of its actions against Palestinians has raised debate on Israel. It mentions that the University of Cambridge said that Hawking's decision is based on the respect for the U.S. Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel. Lawyer Israel Maimon, says that Hawking's decision supporting an academic boycott of Israel is improper.
