The Anti-Semitic Nature of BDS Exposed
(Fathom-BICOM) Cary Nelson - A new report by the Israel Ministry of Strategic Affairs concentrates on the anti-Zionist and anti-Semitic tweets, cartoons and posters circulated on social media. To someone who has studied anti-Zionist and anti-Semitic tweets and cartoons for some years, it is clear they are becoming more virulent. They are also increasingly intrusive and aggressive. "Kill ur local Zionist" does not feel like an abstraction. That is the dark underbelly of the BDS movement disturbingly documented in the report. The report is a wake-up call and a warning. It simply gathers its open source evidence in one place. Its categories are adopted from the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance Working Definition of Antisemitism that has been endorsed by many countries.
