Oh CJ... More lies and bull****. You're like a bad record on repeat. You have said this many times in many other threads.
Yes and even provided lot of sources where leadership explains all this in their own words. But I know we are not really bothered by facts when it comes to promoting hate groups promoting Israel's destruction like BDS.
Such a silly and just flat out ignorant statement to make. Hyperboles and just flat out lies against the organization only get you so far.
"The campaign for boycotts, divestment and sanctions (BDS) is shaped by a rights-based approach and highlights the three broad sections of the Palestinian people: the refugees, those under military occupation in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and Palestinians in Israel. The call urges various forms of boycott against Israel until it meets its obligations under international law by: Ending its occupation and colonization of all Arab lands occupied in June 1967 and dismantling the Wall; Recognizing the fundamental rights of the Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel to full equality; and Respecting, protecting and promoting the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties as stipulated in UN Resolution 194.

Wow. Nice sanitized set of lies for public consumption.
[Israel] was Palestine, and there is no reason why it should not be renamed Palestine.”
-Omar Barghouti, Founder, Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel
“The real aim of BDS is to bring down the state of Israel….That should be stated as an unambiguous goal. There should not be any equivocation on the subject. Justice and freedom for the Palestinians are incompatible with the existence of the state of Israel.”
-As’ad AbuKhalil
“I think the BDS movement will gain strength from forthrightly explaining why Israel has no right to exist.”
-John Spritzler, Pro-BDS Author
“BDS’s stated goals (ending the Occupation, equality for non-Jews and Jews, and the right of return of the Palestinian refugees) logically imply the end of Israel as a Jewish state….The “state of the Jews” is actually an instrument by which a Jewish elite ruling class of billionaires and generals and politicians secures its oppressive grip on ordinary Jews in Israel…This is why there should not be a Jewish state.”
-John Spritzler
“There’s no Israel. That’s what it’s really about.”
- Norman Finkelstein, BDS activist
“Our corporation boycotts all Israeli products and services, and encourages other institutions, companies and individuals to cease and avoid all economic, academic and cultural activity that supports the racist state of Israel until that state dissolves itself.”
-Paul Larudee, Co-founder, Free Palestine Movement
“The goal of #BDS is the full restoration of Palestinian rights, not an agreement to create an artificial mini-state in order to save Zionism”
-Ali Abunimah, BDS activist
“Zionists complain [BDS] demands spell the end of the “Jewish state.” They are correct. A “Jewish state” is by definition dedicated to the supremacy of Jews over non-Jews in Palestine, and is therefore irreconcilable with the justice advocated by BDS.”
-David Litwin, BDS activist

This going down the memory hole or you prepared to accept it and move on?
They try to "silence" them, really, how?

Add to that the countless pro-Israel speakers shouted down or disrupted by the "pro-Palestinian movement" and we have a clear approach of intimidation and efforts to ensure their s is the only voice on campus, so they can continue to spew their antisemetic propaganda.
More of the same. "Anything that is against Israel is therefore just hatred of Jews because I say so."
no, because it is. The BDS movement is motivated by antisemitism and an intention to end Israel (which is part and parcel of the same thing). I know you folks don't like being called out on that sort of thing, but that's the reality.
