that the same people - the BDSers - who want to foment hate against Jews outside of Israel also want to remove the one Jewish nation from the earth that serves as a sanctuary for the Jews who have been forced to leave many countries in recent history, and today are leaving countries directly because of the new left BDS-linked anti-semitism such as France, Sweden, UK.

there are no other "acceptable" boycott movements focused on delegitimating a people. on the other hand, there is an unbroken string of boycott movements going back to 1933 to delegitimate the Jewish people, moving in 1945 from, er, Europe, to the Arab world, and shifting its name and management in recent years from the Arab boycott to BDS.

the prevalence of the attitude that motivates this movement makes it all the more imperative for Israel to stand strong.
