BDS: No Problem With Oppression, Only Hate Israel
June 21, 2015 | Israel Today Staff
American journalist and Jewish activist Ami Horowitz was at it again recently, exposing the outrageous double standards of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement.
BDS targets Israel in the name of what it calls “human rights,” but at the same time all but ignores, and often times excuses, far greater humanitarian crises around the world.
To demonstrate that, Horowitz traveled to Ireland, which he described as “ground zero of the BDS movement.” more www.israeltoday.co.il/NewsItem/tabid/178/nid/26831/Default.aspx

British minister: BDS itself using apartheid methods
Eldad Beck 03.15.16
Britain's Secretary of State for Justice, Michael Gove, has launched an unprecedented attack on the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement (BDS), accusing it of disseminating anti-Semitic lies and of using apartheid tactics against Israel.
"Israel is dealing with a prejudiced, systematic attack against its existence. The BDS movement, which claims that it is working against apartheid, in retrospect is using methods of apartheid in that it calls for the shunning of Jewish academics, the boycott of Jewish goods, the de-legitimization of Jewish commerce. It is up to us to show solidarity with the Jews and with their right to national sovereignty," Gove said at an international conference on anti-Semitism in Berlin
Gove told former justice minister Tzipi Livni that the British Foreign Office, Ministry of Justice, and Home Office are working to limit the ability to submit claims against high ranking Israeli officials who arrive in the UK as "war criminals" or for "crimes against humanity" under universal law.
Former minister Livni also joined in the discussion.
"Anti-Semitism wears the costume of criticism of Israeli policy," she said. "BDS succeeds because people don't understand that the organization doesn't exist to help the Palestinians, nor does it protest against specific Israeli policy, rather it is in complete opposition to the existence of the State of Israel. Instead of giving BDS the opportunity to isolate Israel, we should isolate BDS."
