Amid a bevy of coronavirus legislation, Missouri lawmakers took a moment to offer a stern rebuke to a controversial movement that claims to be part of "social justice" advocacy.
For those who don't know . . .
BDS - Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions is a Palestinian-led campaign promoting various forms of boycott against Israel. The campaign claims that its objective is to pressure Israel until it meets what the campaign describes as Israel's obligations under international law, defined as withdrawal from the occupied territories, removal of the separation barrier in the West Bank, full equality for Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel, and "respecting, protecting, and promoting the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties"
The reason this is a concern in Missouri is that the movement has taken hold on college campuses and many students are pressuring universities to participate in BDS.
Many claim that BDS is an Antisemitic effort . . . Here's a passage that explains opposition as succinctly as possible. . .
BDS is Antisemitic
"BDS claims that it advocates for only non-violent steps, most importantly the “return” of millions of descendants of Palestinian refugees into Israel proper. But let’s not be confused. First, the end result of such a policy would be the same–the dissolution of the world’s only Jewish state. And second, anyone with even a rudimentary understanding of the Middle East knows that if the BDS movement’s dream ever came true, it would quickly turn into a nightmare for the Jewish population. In a majority Palestinian state–which given current societal trends would most likely be under an Islamist leadership such as Hamas–the fate of the Jews would be anything but peaceful. This is a region where minorities are either massacred, oppressed or driven out. Those who therefore claim that Jews could live in security and dignity in a majority Palestinian state are just hiding their cynical intentions behind fanciful language of so-called justice."
From a strategic standpoint, it's also important to note that Israel is the only real U.S. ally in the region.
And all of this leads us a Republican effort that will put the kibosh on this college pastime protest . . .
KMBC: Missouri lawmakers pass bill against boycotting Israel
Deets:
"Missouri lawmakers on Thursday passed a bill to ban the state from doing business with companies that boycott Israel. The GOP-led House approved the measure 95-40 on Thursday, the day before their Friday deadline to pass bills this year."

Jesus, why are the jews hated by so many for so long? Is it because their disgusting behavior against the Palestinians, their subversion of the media, their open support of mass migration in support of their Kalgari plan, desire to disarm America, fake claim of being white to denounce whites then claim their non-white jewishness, delusional belief of superiority, rampant nepotism...
ReplyDeleteEver wonder why it is illegal to investigate or question of the holocaust, if something is so true and undeniable that it is illegal to question it....why is that?
Are they really such a disgusting people that we need laws against criticizing them?
Or maybe it’s because Muslims are all taught by their 7th century illiterate, violent, pedophile prophet to kill all Jews (or all non-Muslims for that matter).
DeleteDear Zionists, you can see in the comments above that your craven arrogance and violence and manipulations enables racist antisemitic white assholes. Don't blame Jewish BDS when people associate your lying hateful Zionist politics with all Jews.
Delete"This is a region where minorities are either massacred, oppressed or driven out."
ReplyDeleteZionist would know all about that, being the experts and call. Israel has military superiority but makes no effort to obtain a just peace with the people they have massacred oppressed robbed and driven out.
And now the craven GOP party of free speech want to silence all advocacy for the victims of geonicede.
Or maybe it’s that the rest of the world doesn’t want to be influenced by a 7th century, pedophile, illiterate, violent warlord who wants to either kill us or convert us and force us to face Mecca 7 times a day with our ass in the air to pray to a satanic moon god.
DeleteWierd that it's Zionist Israel acting like the violent warlord in Palestine.
Delete^^^^ You think the arabs would treat your sweet ass any better? Think you're overlooking all those beheading videos sent to the U.S. from the people you love so much.
ReplyDeleteBullshitter.
Is that the 2 choices then? 1. Send Zionist Israel billions in USA tax $$$ to help them grind down their neighbors, or 2. Islamic Caliphate in Jefferson City?
DeleteShut up zionist moron.
Democrats love Muslims due to the fact they hate Christians and Jews.
DeleteReally? So Wierd that BDS was started by Jews!
DeleteObviously this ^^ Zionist pig just wants Americans to shut up and send more money. More money. More money. More money.
When the Fuck was Missouri politically annexed by Israel?
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know where to get a cheap yarmaluke?
ReplyDeleteSalam, @8:47, peace be upon you, Brother.

DeleteYep, this the shit we get from Zionist psychos: nuke everything.
DeleteWell, Israel is where the rapture will occur, so we need Israel.
ReplyDelete^^Yes...then do the south! Those backwards ass rednecks in Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, et al are the worst!
ReplyDeleteIs their any difference between antizionism and antisemitism?
ReplyDeleteHow many people can claim ownership to land based upon their religion?
Mission Hills - the homeland to those of the bourgeois faith tradition.
9:18 i agree, the south is loaded with the blacks and something has to be done with those people, good call!
ReplyDeleteIsn’t this a zenophobic Democrat thing?
ReplyDeleteI, for one, affirm that Jews are the most downtrodden minority in America today.
ReplyDeleteThey are kept in subservient, invisible roles throughout the culture.
They live in grinding poverty throughout America.
They are never represented in the MSM or cinema or in any other part of America.
This proud proposal of understanding and love brought to you by the Muslim Community. For children are taught to hate and kill anything that is not Muslim. They are taught it's okay to lie to anyone who is non-muslim. Such a peaceful group that allows honor killings because a parent was disrespected buy a child or another adult. Yes yes all the Love Brought to everyone the inclusion of the gay population, oh wait a minute, there is no gays in the Muslim religion. So understanding so loving so caring. A religion that permanently scars and mutilated female genital area so she cannot have pleasure! Only Muslims want to push Sharia law onto the whole world and remember Muslim are goatfuckers Allah was a goatfucker and a false prophet. Praise Jesus Christ for he is good
ReplyDelete^^^OK Boomer.
ReplyDelete^^^ better a boomer who has boom their way through life successfully, then a child your age who obviously has no skills to handle adulthood!
Delete^^OK Boomer. Blah blah blah.
ReplyDeleteAnd look at this baby looks like he's saying his first words LOL maybe he's got a diaper full of shit and is Mommy needs to change him and give him a bottle he's too damn ugly his mother says to breastfeed
Delete^^That little fucker was so ugly his Mammy didn't know which hole to stick the bottle in.
ReplyDelete"Allahuakbar!.....Kaboom!"
ReplyDeleteGosh, Tony, I'm not so sure that TKC readers are all on board with the whole, "Israel is our greatest ally" thing. Maybe we should ask (((Perigrine Honig))) what she thinks. Or better yet, we should get (((Jason Kander)))'s opinion.
ReplyDelete^^^It's hard to get a good count of how many TKC readers support Israel and how many have gone BDS. Two thirds or so of the posts are from Bolshie Boy and Chimpy. Definitely not a fair sample.
ReplyDeleteFight terror -- nuke I$rael.
