Words of the Week: Max Boot
“I hesitate to hurl accusations of ‘antisemitism,’ and I freely admit that it is fair to criticize Israeli actions (I do so myself). But there is no denying that BDS supporters display a strange, selective animus against the Jewish state. They should do some soul-searching about why they are more anti-Israel than many Arab states.”

Yes. Why not BDA China for their treat of the Uighurs? Why not boycott Myanmar for their treatment of the Rohingya? Both terrible attacks on an unarmed, peace abiding, long term group.
And why do they even do it, is one of my questions, besides the answer “human nature.” Why? Israel is an imperfect democracy. Like ours.
