> Every nation does this with their indigenous population. And it is always wrong. > Yet you don't seem to be outraged at the fact native americans are raped and murdered almost everyday in america. Not under sanction of the state, and Non native americans are also raped and murdered almost every day in america. These things are crimes in USA regardless of the victim, where in China the state is sanctioning it and doing it.

Yes it wrong. But we aren't punishing africa for their genocide of muslims and christians and we arent doing it our own ally israel. So isn't it a bit weird that its mentioned with china every other day? Do you know what they call concentration camps in israel? The gaza strip.

  It is a bit weird that there are whole movements like BDS setup against Isreal, a wholly democratic and liberal country where people of all religions enjoy the same rights and nobody is placed in concentration camps, while every time someone mentions that China is a bad actor we get asked why does BDS not exists. BDS does exist, and China is a bad actor and should be opposed.

    Yea I'm just pointing out it doesn't work in the slightest. I agree with you for the most part. Especially in the case of China which for the most part is self sufficient. While israel relies on american intervention to even run sufficiently. But I also want to point out the groups perpetuating this in america are the republicans who dont actually care and are doing for xenophobic reasons not for the best interest of the people in these camps especially when they run their own.

    The US condemned BDS by the way. Look it up.
    - jaekash 6y ago
      I assume you are referring to the Democrat controlled US House passing a resolution with bipartisan support and a 398-17 vote which condemns BDS[1]. BDS is still allowed to operate and the condemnation has no state-actionable consequences against BDS. And there are members of the US congress who openly support BDS.

        No, actually I'm referring to almost every piece of legislature in each of the us states. In which the first to ratify the sanctions being Tennessee a republican state. http://jewishobservernashville.org/2015/04/22/tennessee-legislature-first-in-nation-to-approve-anti-bds-measure/ http://jewishobservernashville.org/2015/04/22/tennessee-legi... But I assume all you did was a quick google search to confirm your bias. https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/anti-bds-legislation https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/anti-bds-legislation Hmm, It seems the majority of the states to ratify resolutions have been overwhelmingly republican. It seems as if. Everyone in the us who does not support the bds movement.

Individual US states is not the same as the "The US". And what you are linking to is not sanctions and again has no state-actionable consequences against BDS that I can see. It is a condemnation. > It seems as if. Everyone in the us who does not support the bds movement. Good they have some sense, even so BDS is still allowed to operate in the US. How will BDS ever survive now that it has been made clear that nobody likes them, while they are still allowed to operate. I mean they are entitled to everybody's support no?
