3. Apparently there is a movement t called BDS

That stands for boycott, divest and sanctions. It appears there are "non-government organizations" behind this movement and Soros is a major funding source. The BDS-ing is to be done against Israel.

I am not trolling. This is honestly news, or fake news, to me. I am just looking to know how to respond to my Israeli friend. Or maybe I don't respond? There has been so much Russian trolling of Soros and then there are the Evangelicals.

I am at war with "conservatives." I have grown to hate them. Really. I hate the lying and they are all lies.
