eli _WRITES "After a Danish workers' union cancelled a preliminary order of computer hardware from an Israeli high tech company due to the IDF's "rough" actions in the Palestinian territories, the firm's chief executive launched an Internet campaign to try to reverse the union's decision. But even a face-to-face meeting with the union's chairman didn't succeed in changing the Danish boycott of Israel......
"He's a stubborn man," Dov Shoam, CEO of Radix Technologies said, after meeting in Copenhagen with Jens Peter Hansen, head of SiD - the General Workers Union in Denmark. "He was maybe willing to listen, but we didn't receive the smallest hint that he was willing to change his position," Shoam told Yediot Aharonot. "Maybe we will have to 'bombard' them some more until they realize that they were wrong."

"I did what the official authorities [in Israel] should have done," Shoam said. "I used the Internet well. I received messages from all parts of [Israeli] society. What was dearest to me were the messages from the bereaved parents [of terror victims]. I believe that without trying to do so, I served them well."
Jens Peter Hansen can be reached at jh@sid.dk. Radix Technologies can be
