Kondor, we've been through this already. Don't make fun of BDS, it's practically all the pro Palestinians have
 
... and from Academia we have this:
We, the undersigned anthropologists, are circulating this petition to voice our opposition to the ongoing Israeli violations of Palestinian rights, including the Israeli military occupation of the Gaza Strip, West Bank, and East Jerusalem, and to boycott Israeli academic institutions that are complicit in these violations.

The recent military assault on the Gaza Strip by Israel is only the latest reminder that the world’s governments and mainstream media do not hold Israel accountable for its violations of international law. As a community of scholars who study problems of power, oppression, and cultural hegemony, we have a moral responsibility to speak out and demand accountability from Israel and our own governments. Acting in solidarity with Palestinian civil society continues a disciplinary tradition of support for anticolonial and human rights struggles, itself an important departure from anthropology’s historical complicity with colonialism. As laid out in the American Anthropological Association (AAA)’s 1999 Declaration on Anthropology and Human Rights, “Anthropology as a profession is committed to the promotion and protection of the right of people and peoples everywhere to the full realization of their humanity…When any culture or society denies or permits the denial of such opportunity to any of its own members or others, the AAA has an ethical responsibility to protest and oppose such deprivation.”

Anthropologists for the Boycott of Israeli Academic Institutions

Chip, chip, chip.
Meanwhile, over 2000 of top US universities and institutions have implemented anti boycott policies. In other words, BDS has been outlawed on US campuses.

Another BDS flop! Chip chip fart fart burp burp.

More like 250. Umbrella organisations might issue "condemnations", but they don't govern policies and proceedures of their individual members. Just another bit of desperate Hasbara from "Wrong again Rude-ee" and is girlfriends. Next.
 
Well, not so bad.

Small but constant acceleration, aided and abetted by Israel making a mockery of international law and democracy, and even of its international friends, day after day.

Danny Glover is doing his bit. :D
Good on him.

Black Americans still remember what racial apartheid was like, and even experience reduced forms of it, now.

The film, “American Revolutionary: the Evolution of Grace Lee Boggs,” is due to be screened at the DocAviv festival, which is running through May 17.

In a statement, Glover and nine others featured in the film, along with Boggs, the 98-year-old philosopher and activist whose life is chronicled in the documentary, said: “We stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine, and support their call for cultural and academic boycott of Israel… we were shocked to find the film slated to be screened at the DocAviv festival in Israel on May 13th and 15th. This was scheduled without our knowledge.”

They said they attempted to have the screenings canceled, but “the festival organizers and film producers informed us that this was not possible and they would move forward with the screening, over our objections.”

Boggs “has explicitly stated her support of the boycott and believes this screening is in direct contradiction to her legacy and ongoing work as a revolutionary,” the statement said.

Danny Glover is an anti-American Communist and a Jew-hating SOB who I wouldn't piss on if he was on fire. Along with his girlfriend Mel Gibson.

I thought they broke up.

Really, mentally ill and challenged Challenger? Ha ha ha.

Here is your BDS (Bowel Discharge Syndrome) VICTORY:

Universities Standing Strong For Academic Freedom and Against Bigotry (running list)

The following is a list of institutions whose presidents or chancellors have publicly rejected the academic boycott of Israel in recent days. The American Council on Education, an umbrella of 1,800 institutions that is widely considered the largest higher education organization in the United States, has condemned the boycott. So has the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities, which has 223 institutional members. The Executive Committee of the Association of American Universities, which represents 62 top institutions in the U.S. and Canada, has also expressed its strong opposition to the boycott, as has the American Association of University Professors, which counts more than 48,000 members. 134 Members of the U.S. House of Representatives have signed a letter condemning the boycott.

(Updated 1:21 p.m. EST, 2/26. Current tally: 250)

In addition, the following institutions’ American Studies programs have withdrawn their membership in the American Studies Association (ASA) following its boycott vote:

Furthermore, the following institutions have flatly denied being institutional members of the ASA, though the organization has listed them as such:

The editorial boards of the following student newspapers have also published editorials condemning the boycott of Israel and hailing their university administrations’ rejection thereof:

Tip of the BDS iceberg': Kuwait excludes Veolia from $750m contract

According to reliable sources in Kuwait, following this humiliating defeat, Veolia was compelled to withdraw from a tender for a project to expand the “Um Al-Haiman” waste water treatment station after qualifying for it. The project is valued at about $1.5 billion.

Even before this total loss of contracts worth $2.25B, Veolia had already lost or had to pull out of tenders worth approximately $24 billion, mainly in the UK, Sweden, Ireland and the U.S.

Not to worry.

The US will simply find a way to funnel the difference (using your tax dollars) under the table to Israel, to make up for it, dividing it up and laundering it enough so you'll never find it.

You will find that when companies begin losing contracts worth billions because of their association with Israel, behaviors change.

Nahhhhh... lightweight, temporary hits to the Israeli economy do not trump Israeli survival on the priority list...

I wonder if those racist pukes in BDS will boycott the Ebola vaccine when Israel perfects it shortly? Hmmmmm?

Excellent article. Thanks for sharing. Alistair Sloan nails it in the second half. BDS is just the start.
 
...Excellent article. Thanks for sharing. Alistair Sloan nails it in the second half. BDS is just the start.
Given that BDS has been on its feet since 2005, and given that to date it really hasn't accomplished diddly-squat, it appears that your 'start' needs a reboot.

Wake me up when anything more substantive happens that pushes the situation towards a tipping point.

'Til then, it's all more like radio-static and background noise, than anything meaningful.
