Not a question: Notification, US House of Representatives voting now on a resolution to oppose the BDS boycott bill.

What is BDS?
The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement works to end international support for Israel's oppression of Palestinians and pressure Israel to comply with international law.

The government should not restrict the political freedom of the people.

@4meAndyou I read all that in the paper. It still doesn't justify war.

@SW-User Let us hope and pray that we do not go to war over it. But Iran certainly should not be shooting down drones in International air space.

@4meAndyou very true.

@xixgun Steve Scalise, and others who are speaking right now, want to emphasize that today they are trying to pass a resolution, and they HOPE they can pass it, but it has to go before the full house. It's like a graveyard in there today...almost empty.

@4meAndyou Lee Zeldin is speaking right now and he says the BDS movement makes no effort to distance themselves from HAMAS.

@4meAndyou criticising Israel is not anti semitic. Israel is not representative of Jewish people.

@ViciDraco And you know that how?

@4meAndyou if you do not see that there is a self evident difference between criticizing a nation and criticizing a race or ethnicity of people then I don't know what to say.

Was criticizing Obama four years ago hate speech against the American people? Absolutely not. It was people criticizing a government.

Or if I were to criticize the European Union am I being racist against white people? That would be ridiculous to link.

Israel doesn't represent all Jewish people. Israeli is not the same as Jewish. And even if it was, criticizing the government of a people is not criticism of the people themselves.
