Later today I have an article coming out sharing my views on Palestine, Israel, boycotts, divestment, and Freedom of Speech in America.
My Latest. 20 states have basically banned boycotts of Israel. Why this is not just short-sighted, it's illegal.http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/king-laws-penalize-israel-boycotts-illegal-article-1.3103675 …

The purpose of BDS is not to reform Israel or force negotiations, it is to undermine the existence of a Jewish homeland.

I can't speak for BDS; but I can speak for boycotts in general. When done well; they work
-
The purpose of BDS is to pressure Israel to give Palestinians equal rights and end apartheid. https://bdsmovement.net/what-is-bds
-
Bullshit. They do nothing to actually help their own people, and Arabs living in Israel already have equal rights.

Woow. Take it easy there uncle Sam. Israel has Gaza and the West Bank in apartheid bantustans. They have limited control of movement & trade

Did you see the links to the laws I included? Most don't mention BDS but just boycotts in general. Bad laws
-
That's incorrect
@ShaunKing. Laws are 100% about#BDS specifically.

great article again. but this issue has so much baggage it's hard to simplify. it's gone on so long...
-
That is why I am surprised to see you critique one tweet of mine, which was in a series of tweets, about a longer article.
-
because even in a tweet: i do not see it as necessary for you to make that statement when you obviously stand on the side of justice for all

The US Supreme Court also has ruled nonviolent boycotts are protected by the 1st Amendment https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAACP_v._Claiborne_Hardware_Co ….

MLK was convicted under Alabama's anti-boycott law. Those laws were illegal then and they are illegal now.

You're the liar here. Even Mandela calls Israel Apartheid. Tutu, too. You are the source of dishonor.https://youtu.be/7H1AGqUznH0
