In reply to the discussion: antisemitism vs criticism of Israel [View all]pecosbob
(7,536 posts)and that's why the threat of a boycott terrifies them, enough so that they use their lobbyists to secure passage of some the most unconstitutional and discriminatory conditional work clauses bullshit ever seen in this nation in all the red states and in Washington DC. Even Schumer has signed on to this bullshit. The Congresswoman wasn't simply criticizing Israeli policy vis a vis the Palestinians, but specifically AIPAC's ginning up these bullshit work clauses all around the country. Remember the teacher fired in Texas for refusing to sign an agreement never to boycott Israel? How y'all going to feel about it when local Republicans start passing work requirements prohibiting you from supporting Black Lives Matter or NARAL or Planned Parenthood? Beyond belief that people can't see beyond the end of their own noses when AIPAC pulls out the anti-semitism card and plays it like a fiddle. I know some people won't like what I've said, but it's about your constitutional rights.
