Subject: RE: BS: Trump Station in Old Jerusalem

The three main goals of the BDS movement targeting Israel are:

1. Ending its occupation and colonization of all Arab lands and dismantling the Wall.

2. Recognizing the fundamental rights of the Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel to full equality.

3. Respecting, protecting and promoting the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties as stipulated in UN Resolution 194.

1. All Arab lands is defined as; "from the river to the sea"

2. Irrelevant because it is codified in Israel's founding document and is in practice.

3. Everyone knows this would mean the end of Israel as a Jewish state and that is the goal of the movement.

Many countries, state jurisdictions, cities and universities have banned BDS as a thinly disguised anti-Semitic movement and have made it illegal.


The first three points appear to come from some official source. They seem to be an accurate description of the goals of BDS - and they seem like reasonable goals.

The next group of three points attempts to explain the first three, but I find them to be misleading and unreasonable. Where'd you get the two 3-point sets, Bobad?
