Look, I try to understands the popularity of BDS, and I'll attempted to explain why it has received so much popular and media attention.
A political boycott makes the nobody's feel good; it makes them feel important; it makes them part of the group. They are lonely people who are part of nothing but are desperately seeking recognition of some kind. They especially think they are doing good for mankind, like standing up against tyranny and fighting oppression, because when you are standing up to injustice, you are standing with Martin Luther King, Abraham Lincoln, and even Moses. Now, I must admit that this is very seductive - especially when you are joined by beautiful celebrities, famous rock stars, and your favorite professors and you can quote the on your media outlets hoping people believe that they are all friends and on the same page. In short it's simply the masses really are following the BDS movement blindly.
Here's a simple question: I wonder if all those people that support BDS have the slightest understanding of what this movement really means? " Those BDS supporters who join protest marches on campuses and chant: “From the River to the Sea … Palestine will be free!”
Now stop and ask yourself: 'Do you understand what that chant means?' No I thought not Let me explain
That the River is the Jordan, the Sea is the Mediterranean, these activists are calling for the destruction of the State of Israel - and the campus groups Justice For Palestine and the Muslim Student Association have their roots with the Muslim Brotherhood.
That’s the same Muslim Brotherhood that believes that the Koran should be the basis for every government - including our own!
So what exactly has BDS achieved??? FUCK ALL.
