Steve,
Give me a list of the countries that have condemned it.

Wiki,
Canada
Legislative Assembly of Ontario
In 2016, in a bipartisan vote, the Legislative Assembly of Ontario passed a resolution that "calls on the legislature to stand against any movement that promotes hate, prejudice and racism" and "reject the 'differential treatment' of Israel by the BDS movement".[56]

France
In France, the 2003 Lellouche law outlaws discrimination based on a variety of immutable characteristics, including national origin."[57][58] That law and hate speech laws have been applied to BDS activities.[59]

United States
In April 2015, Tennessee became the first state in the United States to pass a resolution condemning BDS.[60] As of June 2017, a total of 21 states have passed anti-BDS legislation.[61]
