Excellent synopsis. Throughout the US in small towns, large cities, and universities there are resolutions in support of BDS. It is chilling how the long term focus of the BDS fanatics has created a movement that spreads antisemitism and disinformation in order to delegitimize Israel and promote the annihilation of the Jewish State.
Right on! Great point. The most startling point of your expose is that BDS has so many non-Palestinian gang members, starting with the UN, then the NGOs, and let's not forget academia. How mindless are so many humans.
Ah yes, let's not forget academia. It's disconcerting that the intellectuals appear to be among the easiest to deceive—and the last to grudgingly acknowledge that they've been bamboozled.
I agree with the underlying methodology of stirring up Jew-hatred that has been very successful. I disagree the statements that financial impact has been negligible and therefore it has been ignored. BDS also extended to professorial exchanges between universities. The biggest problem is that Qatar has been feeding billions into the American university system to staff the schools with Arab friendly, Jew-hating staff to create anti-Israel curricula. That money has also funded grade school programs that distribute maps that don't contain Israel with accompanying anti-Israel lessons. I think you can see where I'm going with this. There has been a multi-faceted attack on Israel and Zionism that has been extremely effective among young adults graduating from the liberal universities.
Myrna, thanks for your comments. I agree, as you point out, that BDS has done enormous damage. The universities especially have been corrupted, possibly beyond repair, and Qatar is the main villain. My main point was that the BDS campaign failed utterly to destroy Israel’s economy. But it did succeed in providing cover for antisemites to come out of hiding, rebrand themselves as anti-Zionists, and spread Jew-hatred far and wide with impunity.
Truly excellent and compelling. And something Shurat HaDin has been saying from the start of BDS. The BDS movement, like SJP, is an arm of Iran and the terror groups. Bravo.

Especially when the bamboozled were the first bamboozlers!

Shurat HaDin does awesome work! Kol HaKavod!
