I understand the historical context of the land they control, but why is their a BDS movement some of our Congressional members support? Also why is the EU backing groups that support BDS?
Just trying to better understand all of the Israel hate. If it's too long for a post, then I'd appreciate a well explained link to read. Thanks!
BDS (Boycott Divest Sanction) is non-violent resistance to support Palestinian human rights. There is an illegal occupation and human crisis going on right now with overwhelming support from our country based on misinformation and misleading leaders (who are all paid well by supporting entities).
BDS is a very effective method of resisting the illegal occupation of the State of Israel. It is not an antisemitic movement, as some will claim. Many Jews speak out in support of BDS.
Israel is an apartheid state, and very far from the Democracy they claim to be. Our elected leaders are all well paid by pro-Israel supporters, and effectively try to convince us Americans otherwise.

18 of the 120 members of the Israeli Knesset (i.e. Parliament) are Arab. Arabs serve on the Israeli Supreme Court. 20% of the population in Israel is Arab. Show me where the Apartheid is because the over 2 million arabs in Israel have full voting rights, can serve in government, and own their own land, serve in the military, and own businesses.
The Palestinians want to kill the Israeli Arabs perhaps some research or visiting the country will shed some light into the crap you are espousing.
