Interview with Palestinian leader Omar Barghouti

[G-Man]

Here is a rare interview with Palestinian leader Omar Barghouti, mainly on the BDS campaign.

This quote needs amplifying:

Conflating time-honored, human-rights-based boycotts of Israel’s violations of international law with anti-Jewish racism is not only false, it is a racist attempt to put all Jews into one basket and to implicate them in Israel’s crimes against the Palestinians. (my emphasis]

Israel’s charge of racism against the BDS movement is akin to the Ku Klux Klan accusing Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks of racism! It is so blatantly propagandistic.

And for those who are still concerned with the supposed anti-Semitism of BDS:

BDS is a non-violent human rights movement that seeks freedom, justice and equality for the Palestinian people, based on international law and universal principles of human rights. As such, BDS has consistently and categorically rejected all forms of discrimination and racism, including anti-Semitism as well as dozens of racist laws in Israel.
