[S.J.]

So much for the boycott.

 

[teddyearp]

This cannot be true. I mean we are bombarded with how many "the world hates Israel" threads a day?

The American Studies Association is the nation’s oldest and largest association devoted to the interdisciplinary study of American culture and history.

 

[P F Tinmore]

Typically, all administrations have rejected the boycott. There is nothing new here.

BDS can still hold rallies, educational campaigns, and lobby administrations for boycott.

This is a non issue.

Ha ha ha. You are a desperate liar. Whereas your article predates the anti boycott movement, the one I posted has been recently updated, and NON of the over two thousand leading and elite universities and institutions in the US have removed themselves from it. In fact, the list keeps getting larger.

Sounds like the universities have had it with anti semetic assholes like you. The so called "boycott movement" is dead in the USA.

Nah, I'd say it's a pretty big hit against BDS

Yes, BDS can still still hold its worthless rallies, featuring the "Muslim students associations". In other words, a total waste of time.

Harvard and Georgetown are on the anti boycott list you moron! Look it up.

Sure, 350 "anthropologists" have a right to do and say whatever the fuck they want, they have no power to do anything, and their boycott won't add up to a hill of beans compared to the fact that thousands of US universities, including a majority of the leading institutions, have banned the boycott movement on their campuses! Ha ha ha. Freakin' IDIOT.

Ever since the boycott began, Israel's economy has been booming. Long live the BDS movement!

Boycott by Academic Group Is a Symbolic Sting to Israel


"An American organization of professors on Monday announced a boycott of Israeli academic institutions to protest Israel’s treatment of Palestinians, signaling that a movement to isolate and pressure Israel that is gaining ground in Europe has begun to make strides in the United States."
