How is the boycott going?

DURHAM, NC, November 24, 2014 -- Durham has become the first U.S. municipality to boycott a company because of its role in perpetuating injustice in Israel/Palestine.

On a night when the Ferguson grand jury failed to indict Darren Wilson for the murder of Michael Brown, Durham residents successfully brought an end to a $1 million annual contract between the County and with private security corporation G4S Secure Solutions.

G4S previously provided security at Durham County libraries and civic buildings. Durham reconsidered its security contract after residents protested the role of the privatized police force in the community and the company’s involvement in Israeli institutions that detain and discriminate against Palestinians.

“As a long-time Durham resident, the presence in my community of a company that participates in the oppression of my people makes me feel unsafe and unwelcome,” said Ahmad Jitan. “Given their track record in occupied Palestine, I do not expect G4S to have the best interests of people of color here in Durham in mind. If Ferguson can’t even keep the public police force accountable for their actions, how can we expect to keep a private police force like G4S accountable? For the sake of both my homes, I am proud that the county dropped the G4S contract. I do not want my tax money to fund a company that profits from the occupation of my people's land.”

G4S signed a contract with the Israeli Prison Service in 2007 and its machinery and security officers have been deployed in checkpoints and illegal settlements in occupied Palestine.

“Since I moved to Israel and saw the reality of life for Palestinians with my own eyes, I could no longer remain silent,” said Emily Schneider, a member of Jewish Voice for Peace - NC. “I waited for hours with Palestinian friends at checkpoints that look like cages—that run with G4S security equipment. Thank you, Durham County Commissioners, for boycotting G4S.”

Good.
More to come.




Watch the same morons complain when the security is removed all together, or they have to pay more for the privilege of being harassed by security guards. I hope the mayor has the gonads to tell them they made their choice so they have to live with it.

Now how many Palestinian families are suffering because of the RACIST NAZI BDS movement ?
 
Oh I can do a lot more than that Aris.

But your 'rebuttal' is a load of codswallop.
You want your cake and eat it!

Israel claims a right to all the land of Palestine and yet denies any responsibility for the people there. Get it right Aris, or if you MUST get it wrong at least be consistent. If Israel has a right to build where it wants the people there are of its state and deserve full citizen rights. Trying to take the land but reject the people is your apartheid.

And you really cannot escape that conundrum. Not at least with any honest observer.



And here is your codswallop as Israel does not claim a right to all the land of Palestine, and you have failed to produce any concrete evidence of this. All you have given is people's private thoughts and wishes and tried to pass them of as Israeli policy. The people have their own government who are ineffectual and incapable of making any decisions. The land they build on is land stolen by your Palestinians in 1949 to which the Jews hold title. Also there is a treaty in place that the Palestinians tried to use against the Israelis just this year that gives Israel the right to build on the land. And the Palestinians and their stooges want the treaty to be withdrawn, or at least the parts they don't like.

So all the BDS is doing is making more and more Palestinians unemployed and leading to starvation and ethnic cleansing by the likes of you.

"The land they build on is land stolen by your Palestinians in 1949"

How is this possible, Arabs owned 85% of the land in 1946. Did they steal it from themselves? From the UN commissioned Survey of Palestine published in 1946 before Partition. The full document can be downloaded in PDF from NYU's and Wagner Universities' Berman Jewish Policy Archive:

Because as I have already shown that is not what the report says, try reading again and you will see that all non jews are lumped together. This means that the Ottoman landlords in Turkey who owned the majority of the land are part and parcel of the figures. The page previous shows how little was owned by arab muslims, your Palestinians, and how little they owned overall.
 
Apartheid state then. Good luck with that. Israel is doomed to repeat the mistakes of South Africa. The sanctions will come, it took some time for South Africa, it will take some time with Israel.
Where is there apartheid in Israel ?
Sorry I cannot give that to you in a soundbite or two. The good news is that apartheid is only in the beginning of this video. It does not take the whole thing.



I ask where is there Apartheid in Israel, and you respond with a video that's an hour and a half ??

Why can't you just answer the question yourself ?? All day long I hear from you guys that Israel is an apartheid state, how Israel is like apartheid SA. Yet not one of you can tell me where in Israel is there apartheid

You really do not need to "waste" your time learning something. If you want the one liner, Israel is an apartheid state.

If you want more detail it will take more time.

See what I mean? You guys cannot even think of anything apartheid inside Israel.

Israel is not an apartheid state.

There's nothing to learn from you except propaganda and lies.

I asked a very simple question regarding apartheid in Israel. You and Monti could not come up with an answer.

You always so the same thing. You post long videos that you KNOW no one is going to watch and then ask them to try and refute something from the video.

Most US universities have banned BDS from their campuses.

This is what the Bowel Discharge Syndrome has accomplished. ZERO.

Bowel Discharge Syndrome may have accomplished ZERO, true, but Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions, has, at the absolute very, very, least, created 612 replies to this thread over 62 pages and 10,882 views. The fact you are still trying to diss it, means you and yours are running scared, so it's working. Chip...chip...chip, the edifice is cracking.

612 replies mostly laughing at your stupidity. BDS - Bowel Discharge Syndrome has indeed accomplished something...getting itself banned from American universities! BDS has been exposed as a movement withIslamist terrorist ties and the anti BDS movement is growing. Chip chip chip.

My, you've read all 612 replies and analysed them into pro- and anti- have you? I'd be impressed, but previous experience has shown you can't count or read, for that matter. Nor am I surprised that Bowel Discharge Syndrome has been banned from American Universities, they have, I'm sure, strict rules regarding health and hygene on campus, probably why you never made it to a university; they have standards.
 
Ha ha ha. Do you deny that BDS has been banned from American campuses? 10 years and hundreds of millions of dollars spent and NADA to show for. Israel progressing forward at warp speed, while you jerk yourself off to meaningless crap.

Academic boycotts of Israel - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
BDS has not been banned in fact it is growing, while support for the 'shitty little country wanes

BDS is a failed organization on life support, that has achieved nothing. Oh sorry, my bad, they've managed to create many ANTI BDS movements throughout the world. Ha ha ha.

University statements academic boycott of Israel freedom

List Universities Israel Boycott Academic American Studies

The universities and colleges below are confirmed to reject the academic boycott of Israel passed by the American Studies Association.

This list is based on positions expressed by the Presidents of such Universities or others in a position to state a university’s position (e.g., communications staff). We are aware of no university in the U.S. endorsing the boycott. See University statements rejecting academic boycott of Israel. (Note added: For University Systems, we only list individual schools separately if there is a separate statement or some other individual agreement to the system statement, so this list significantly understates the number of universities rejecting the boycott.)

This is a list in progress and will be updated as more announcements/confirmations are made. If you have additions, please post in comments with source link or forward confirming emails to me.
