The US is about to make it a felony to support BDS! No, I'm not making this up!

(c) Criminal penalty

A person who willfully commits, willfully attempts to commit, or willfully conspires to commit, or aids or abets in the commission of, an unlawful act described in subsection (a) shall, upon conviction, be fined not more than $1,000,000, or if a natural person, may be imprisoned for not more than 20 years, or both.

Bye.

DERP.

Sorry, folks, but let me dispose of this troll so the adults can continue discussing this topic.

From the bill you claimed to have read: “(j) Violations of section 8(a).—Whoever knowingly violates or conspires to or attempts to violate any provision of section 8(a) or any regulation, order, or license issued thereunder shall be fined in accordance with section 206 of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1705).”.

Now we click that link and continue reading that: A civil penalty may be imposed on any person who commits an unlawful act described in subsection (a) in an amount not to exceed the greater of-


(1) $250,000; or


(2) an amount that is twice the amount of the transaction that is the basis of the violation with respect to which the penalty is imposed.


(c) Criminal penalty

A person who willfully commits, willfully attempts to commit, or willfully conspires to commit, or aids or abets in the commission of, an unlawful act described in subsection (a) shall, upon conviction, be fined not more than $1,000,000, or if a natural person, may be imprisoned for not more than 20 years, or both.

Bye.

Whoever knowingly violates or conspires to or attempts to violate any provision of section 8(a) or any regulation, order, or license issued thereunder shall be fined

DERP!

Here let me fix it for you.

"Whoever knowingly violates or conspires to or attempts to violate any provision of section 8(a) or any regulation, order, or license issued thereunder shall be fined not more than $1,000,000, or if a natural person, may be imprisoned for not more than 20 years, or both.

The part that doesn't apply.
Go ahead, reread the proposed addition.
It only mentions a fine.

Not a felony. Not jail time.
Were you lying, or just ignorant when you claimed otherwise?

There is no addition that changes the existing penalty.

Well, the Jews control the U.S. Government, I wouldn't be surprised.

I thought you liked being controlled. That's what the Muslim Men tell me

Search the text yourself.....

Text - S.720 - 115th Congress (2017-2018): Israel Anti-Boycott Act

And all this by Israel and its lackeys in our government when they all say that BDS is failing.

It is failing.

And all your whining about BDS succeeding when it just suffered another humiliating loss. It must be difficult for you.

You might want to rally the more excitable Peaceful Inner Strugglers™ at your madrassah and issue a fatwa.

Then why all this shit over nothing. It looks like they are desperate.

 

[montelatici]

No, it will not change, but keep trying.

 

[P F Tinmore]

I read someplace that laws cannot be made in relation to political views. (not a quote) And the Supreme Court has ruled that boycotts are constitutionally protected political speech. In this case the law would be unconstitutional.

 

[jillian]

Wow, right? What else is there to say? The zionists are destroying what is left of our free nation. If this one doesn't piss off all the Americans "on the fence," then I don't know what could. This is our country. Call your Senators and Congressman. And email this one to everyone you love.



Israel Anti-Boycott Act


This bill declares that Congress: (1) opposes the United Nations Human Rights Council resolution of March 24, 2016, which urges countries to pressure companies to divest from, or break contracts with, Israel; and (2) encourages full implementation of the United States-Israel Strategic Partnership Act of 2014 through enhanced, governmentwide, coordinated U.S.-Israel scientific and technological cooperation in civilian areas.


The bill amends the Export Administration Act of 1979 to declare that it shall be U.S. policy to oppose:

• requests by foreign countries to impose restrictive practices or boycotts against other countries friendly to the United States or against U.S. persons; and
• restrictive trade practices or boycotts fostered or imposed by an international governmental organization, or requests to impose such practices or boycotts, against Israel.

The bill prohibits U.S. persons engaged in interstate or foreign commerce from:

• requesting the imposition of any boycott by a foreign country against a country which is friendly to the United States; or
• supporting any boycott fostered or imposed by an international organization, or requesting imposition of any such boycott, against Israel.

The bill amends the Export-Import Bank Act of 1945 to include as a reason for the Export-Import Bank to deny credit applications for the export of goods and services between the United States and foreign countries, opposition to policies and actions that are politically motivated and are intended to penalize or otherwise limit commercial relations specifically with citizens or residents of Israel, entities organized under the laws of Israel, or the Government of Israel.
