So, for once clicktivism is not a travesty. It's easy, and it could have a big impact. At a minimum you are giving pro-human rights MEPs ammo to demand a public debate on why we are in business with Israel, and, more in general, what price "being in business" comes with, and for whom. 6/

Many of us, myself included, feel powerless in the face of geopolitical tides. As small as it is, this ECI, I feel, gives us a chance to weigh in and improve the very poor state of the public debate on these issues. So, my recommendation to you is: sign it, if you are a EU citizen and you agree with it. Fight it if you disagree. Both will be better than just passively trusting the diplomats. Also gives us something to do as we wait for the next doomsday deadline anyway. Hang in there! 7/end

@alberto_cottica An official petition on a state's own platform or directly to the EU is never clicktivism, it's a democracy instrument for citizens like elections. Clicktivism are petitions on the big tracking platforms that bind nobody and can even be filled with false names. And thanks for the link!
