    There were economic sanctions, there was a huge wave of divestment, but all that was pointed at the institutions of the state - not at its citizens ( like this unfortunate decision of Maledives).

    Edit: how much sense would it make blocking black citizens of SA from visiting your country -simply because they live under apartheid?

      What kind of tortured logic is this? Nobody is saying we’re going to block the Palestinians from traveling anywhere. Only the perpetrators, not the victims.

        Well that is pitty, because they’ve just blocked 2 millions of Palestinians living in Israel proper - Demographics of Israel, wikipedia
