And I can’t even imagine it’s an intentional addition, it’s just become part of boiler plate legal documents here in the deep south.
BDS is an existential threat because it threatens to popularize the truth that Israel is an apartheid state. Proponents of the occupation will cite the end of apartheid South Africa as a worst case scenario. Hamas is less so for the inverse reason that the violent opposition (as long as it’s manageable violence) provides reason for the occupation to continue
It’s crazy how the US has laws prohibiting the boycott of a foreign country’s products but not domestic products. If people can’t see that Palestinians are the ones with no power and every right to fight back, then I’m feeling hopeless.
Discrimination argument. Proponents argue that boycotts of Israel is a form of discrimination because they target a particular group (Israelis) with the intent of inflicting economic harm on them.
It’s literally how sanctions work lol. Like who do they think will be affected when the US prohibits business with China?
