Israel is 20% Arab, Israel has plenty of anti-settlement political parties, even senior government members. When you boycott Israel you are boycotting the anti settlement people as well as the pro settlement people. And you are also boycotting the Christian and Muslim Arabs
This had a weird side effect when there was a boycott happening against Soda Stream, because they were made in a settlement. Well, Jews mostly don't work in factories in settlements, Palestinians do. The boycott worked, Soda Stream moved their factory to inside the green line, and all the Palestinians were fired.
- snotrockets 5y agoThe goal of BDS isn’t to convince the settlers, it’s exactly against the people like yourself, who are complicit in not acting against it. As for Palestinian Israelis stance on BDS, just ask them. Silencing the Palestinian minorities in Israel is part of the problem.
