boycotts with or without war

Matnat Chaim, the organization that promotes and encourages altruistic kidney donation, wanted to put on an event in Jerusalem at which 2000 kidney donors would attend, thus making it the largest congregation of kidney donors in one place ever. 

Matnat Chaim contacted Guiness to turn this into an official World Record.

Guiness responded that at this time they are not accepting records submitted from this region, neither from Israel or from the Palestinian ruled territories. They hope to be able to restart soon they say.

not sure what they are waiting for - the war has basically ended already. Even most of the airlines have returned to flying their Israel routes...

On a similar note, Eurovision announced recently that it will not ban Israel from participating in the 2026 competition. As a result of that announcement four European countries said they would not compete due to Israel being included - Spain, Netherlands, Ireland, and Slovenia. 

I thought they wanted Israel to end the war. The protests just wanted Israel to end the genocide and then   we could all go back to kumbaya. The war is over, the "genocide" that never happened is over, but they are still boycotting Israel.
