In the posts above, you attacked Uri Avnery as though his call for boycotting settlements was weak.

Now you're on board all of a sudden!

You won't find Uri Avnery, Peter Beinart, Bernard Avishai, or Michael Walzer claiming there is a BDS that only targets settlements/occupation. They boycott settlements only but they oppose BDS. The one and only type of BDS.

You are the only person claiming there are 2 different types of BDS.

Why don't you prove that? Cite some articles that distinguish between 2 types of BDS.

Please.
