2. BDS isn't just about settlements so why are you repeating this bullshit?

BDS advocates compare Israel to S.Africa, for example. They oppose a Jewish state (anti-zionists), call for full right of return, and support grossly racist "resistance" groups like Hamas & Hezbollah. They are against all normalization/cooperation between Palestinians and Jews.

Mondoweiss, ElectronicIntifada, SJP, JVP, ISM, CodePink, PSC, BLM, & the Muslim Brotherhood all support the above as you do too. You're a big fan of these groups.

So BDS is not just about settlements. Those who boycott just the settlements are PeaceNow, Gush Shalom & Uri Avnery, Peter Beinart, Bernard Avishai, Michael Walzer...but since they aren't anti-Zionists who oppose normalization, support Hamas, & trash Israel by calling it Apartheid, they're too soft in your opinion.
