Tony Copti's work above shows the stupidity of any kind of boycott. There has been a consistent history of Israeli film-makers criticising govt policy and occupation in their films, e.g. Eran Riklis's. To strangle those dissenting voices by banning Israeli films beggars belief, particularly when the leader of the Palestinian Authority himself is not in favour of boycotting the main state of Israel, only the settlements and their produce.
If you boycott Israeli film for the excesses of its govt, then you must by definition boycott those of all states such as China, Russia et al who breach human rights or stage invasions (USA too) or you are reverting to the Nazis' tactics of boycotting Jewish culture and business.
