"If we are to look at Israeli society, it is within the academic community that we've had the most progressive pro-peace views and views that have come out in favor of seeing us as equals…. If you want to punish any sector, this is the last one to approach."

— Al-Quds University President Sari Nusseibeh

The "BDS" or "Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions" movement advocates the demonization of Israel and her actions.

Supporters of BDS are waging a political, economic, cultural, and ideological campaign to delegitimize the State of Israel.

BDS proponents make a false analogy between democratic Israel and Apartheid South Africa so as to isolate and stigmatize Israel.

Advocates of BDS deny Israel the basic human right of self-defense and blame Israel alone for conflict in the region.

BDS supporters demand self-determination for the Palestinians but do not acknowledge the right of the Jewish people to self-determination in their homeland, Israel.

BDS is just a new face for something that's been around for a very long time.
