Education Dept. : BDS activity against Israel will be defined as anti-Semitism

I didn't know hate speech is protected under US constitution.
The truth is not hate. It is protected by our constitution.

Yet BDS still uses intimidation, hate and antisemitic imagery as main tactics.
Now it has gone to the point that the legitimacy of the whole movement is jeopardized
by reoccurring violent behavior, incitement for violence and open use of oldest antisemitic blood libels.
Q.Who is responsible for these problems in the organization?

Opposing the actions of Israel’s government is not anti-semitism.
This is not the issue, no one said it was,
it becomes hate speech when one denies the Jewish people right to self determination, and uses double standards to attack Israeli policies otherwise not used against other countries.

But at the least it has to start with the basic acknowledgment of the boldest antisemitic rhetoric and imagery used in the BDS ranks. Is it going to be denial?
Everybody has a right to self determination. Well, except for non-Jewish people in Israel now.

Same is Arab-Palestine, both of them, run by Sharia courts, but You have no problem with that.
This is called double standard, not used against any other nation but Israel, exactly what was expressed in the article, hence the Education Dept. move against the hate speech.
BDS is the Palestinian's call to end the occupation.

Israel singles itself out by being the only one in that category.

Actually, BDS is just another expression of Jew hatred that has a 1400 year old history in Islamism.
Has nothing to do with Jews.

Your imagination.
 
I still can't forget the hateful screams of so many BDS activists
calling for
"Jews back to Ovens!"...:(
If such rhetoric is actively promoted by the BDS organization, it has to be banned from education, as much as the KKK is not allowed into schools.

On the second level, the BDS Movement is NOT an "advocacy" program for the Arab Palestinians. Nothing it does advocates the direct help of the (so-called) Arab Palestinian Victims. In fact, the BDS Movement may in some cases, actually wound the Arab Palestinians. The Company "Sodastream" laid-off 500 Arab Palestinian employees. (Lost Employment Opportunities!)
What economic opportunities did the Palestinians lose because Israel stole that land?

Remember, Palestinians needed no aid before 1948.

Well, this is another one of those things, that if repeated enough, people being to accept it as fact.

• "Israel's existence is a violation" OF WHAT exactly? (Exact citation please...)

The reason I ask this is because this is often justified by an ambiguous interpretation of the source (whatever they use).

Israel's existence is a violation.
And THAT is hate speech.
What did the U.N .” Violate?”
The UN does not and can not create States. The UN had nothing to do with the creation of Israel.
Therefore, the "violator" can only be the Jewish people. Hence the hate speech.
The U.N. Declared Israel a Jewish State on May 14, 1948.
(COMMENT)

POINT #1

While it is true, that the UN DID NOT create the State of Israel, there is nothing that prohibits it from doing so (other than customary policy and practice). But the UN Charter has a principle of "self-determination" as a primary purpose of the UN along with (but not limited to):
  • To maintain international peace and security,
  • To take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace,
  • The suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace,
  • To bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;
It would be interesting if someone could actually cite a law, treaty or other international agreement that specifically prohibits the UN as a body to create a nation... (Yes, interesting indeed.)

POINT #2

It was by the recommendation of the UN that a "Jewish State," through self-determination, create itself (self-determination) through following the "Steps Preparatory to Independence" as outlined by the body. The "Steps Preparatory to Independence" were overseen by the UN Palestine Commission being the successor Government of Palestine.​

POINT #3

The "hate speech" is not a product of the creation of a state. The conflict and hate speech arise simply because the territorial allocation at the end of The Great War (WWI) was not to the liking of the Arabs [the Arab Higher Committee (AHC) specifically].

The abusive language, threatening speech and adverse propaganda is an expresses prejudice against a particular group or culture; that being the Jewish Immigrants. It is an expression of an unreasoned fear that the immigrant will acquire some measure of power and influence over the Arab; as well as a greater economic foundation.​

Most Respectfully,

The Zionists went to Palestine with the stated purpose of shoving the Palestinians aside and to pig the place for themselves. And that they did. The Palestinians have been fighting this theft ever since.

So where is this unreasoned fear you are talking about?

See this is exactly an example of such a hate speech.
By Your definition of 'Palestinian' You automatically discriminate against all the Jews, erase the suffering they've endured at the hands of their Arab neighbors - while using the oldest antisemitic blood libel in the books.

OH, you have to be kidding!
Please keep in mind:

The Government of the United Kingdom, in a memorandum on the "Legal Meaning of the Termination of the Mandate", has advised the United Nations Palestine Commission that so fas the Mandatory Power is concerned the United Nations Commission will be the Government of Palestine after 15 May 1948.​

The Arab Palestinians did not THEN, and does not NOW, fund the government. Prior to 1948, the UK was liable for all debts related to the operation and maintenance of all normal government functions. After 1948, Israel was responsible for the operation and maintenance of its sovereign territory, and the donor nation contributions have been responsible for funding most of the West Bank and Gaza Strip operation and maintenance; with the Government of Palestine resting "on the resolution of the General Assembly."

Having said that, as you know, the Arab League invaded, and upon the Armistice --- the West Bank became the responsibility of Jordan and the Gaza Strip became the responsibility of Egypt. In the three decades since the "Palestine Liberation Organization" (PLO) declared independence, the sovereignty issues and the alignment of the operation and maintenance of the government has been in question. Even the peaceful transition of government administration has not been effected in that time.

To bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;
Expressing its grave concern that the Palestinian people has been prevented from enjoying its inalienable rights, in particular its right to self-determination,

Guided by the purposes and principles of the Charter,

Recalling its relevant resolutions which affirm the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination,

1. Reaffirms the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people in Palestine, including:

(a) The right to self-determination without external interference;

(b) The right to national independence and sovereignty;

2. Reaffirms also the inalienable right of the Palestinians to return to their homes and property from which they have been displaced and uprooted, and calls for their return;

ODS HOME PAGE

Enforce international law. Problem solved.

Why is there a problem with this?
 
After 1948, Israel was responsible for the operation and maintenance of its sovereign territory, and the donor nation contributions have been responsible for funding most of the West Bank and Gaza Strip operation and maintenance; with the Government of Palestine resting "on the resolution of the General Assembly."
Of course that ducks my question.

So, how and why did all of that happen?
 
has advised the United Nations Palestine Commission that so fas the Mandatory Power is concerned the United Nations Commission will be the Government of Palestine after 15 May 1948.
So where was the UN when it was charged with protecting the people and territory under its trust?
 
EU PARLIAMENT VOTES IN FAVOR OF ADOPTING ANTISEMITISM DEFINITION

The European Parliament on Thursday voted in favor of a resolution endorsing the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism, drawing praise from Jewish groups.

The resolution calls on EU Member States and the EU institutions and agencies to adopt and apply the working definition of antisemitism. The text urges members to: protect their Jewish citizens and Jewish institutions from hate crime and hate speech; support law enforcement efforts to identify and prosecute antisemitic attacks; appoint national coordinators on combating antisemitism; systematically and publicly condemn antisemitic statements; to promote education about the Holocaust in schools; and to review school textbooks to ensure that content about Jewish history and contemporary Jewish life stay clear of antisemitism.

“This is a monumental day for the fight against hate and the protection of the rights of European Jews,” Dr. Moshe Kantor, President of the EJC, said. “For too long, Jews were deemed unique, with hate defined by the perpetrators and not by the victims.”

“The only people who will be dismayed by this decision are those who wish to continue the culture of antisemitic impunity and who believe that Jews should not be afforded protection under the law.”
