I wonder if John Greyson's big public hissy fit about TIFF has anything to do with him being on the Advisory Board of the Toronto Palestinian Film Festival and always pushing for a world-wide boycott of anything even remotely related to Israel? Knowing what TIFF's plans were, one wonders why he waited to the last moment to withdraw, rather than just in the beginning many months ago withdrawing? As for Naomi Klein, her husband couldn't find any jobs in journalism after being dumped by the CBC. Then he was hired by Al Jeezera and she upped her antiIsrael rhetoric. She works very hard to keep her husbands job for him! It is John Greyson who is politicizing TIFF and abusing it for his own political ends.
