THREAD: I’ve supported BDS though I oppose sanctions as an act of war. Which is where THE issue lies. Sanctions ARE an act of war. While Netanyahu MUST be held accountable for crimes against Palestine, boycotting, divesting & sanctioning Israel hurts ALL ppl including innocents..

references voting against S.1, which includes a provision to encourage state & local governments to pass laws suppressing Americans’ right to boycott Israel. So he’s for a solution just not that one. Why? It seems wrong to many. Let me explain: When you sanction a country...

to Israel, to Saudi Arabia, & stop aligning ourselves with their fascist agenda. Stop giving them the tools to kill Palestinians in genocide. We don’t ever hear their side. It’s not fair. The anger & emotion is understood. We must remove Netanyahu but no one stands up to him.

the issue. They can’t just reject this w/o giving a BETTER solution. So I call onto Tulsi, Bernie, Ro, Pressley, as progressives to explain themselves & give us actual solutions. Bc I understand the opposition but it’s not enough w/o a clear decision to stand against genocide.

And let me be very clear. I support BDS but I think we can do better & be more precise in who we are targeting & add more. We also have to DEMAND OUR LEADERS answer to our questions & remember none of this will happen in our current Congress which is why 2020 is crucial.

And even tho Sanders and Gabbard currently dont support BDS we must demand they listen to our solutions, give us theirs, and have this conversation. Bc right now. Not a single candidate on that stage supports it. As progressive they need to answer.
