What exactly goes through the mind of the average BDS supporter?

The BDS - Boycott Divestment and Sanctions- is a movement, set up by an altogether mind-warped group of individuals under the aegis of a thoroughly contemptible and totally uncharitable Qatari named Omar Barghouti.

Contemptible,  because Omar Barghouti was calling for his boycott before and while he attended Tel Aviv University in Israel to gain a Master's Degree in philosophy, rather than attain his degree at a Gazan, Qatar or other Arab university. Yet the democratic rules that apply to citizens in Israel meant that while calling for his boycott, despite a petition by Israelis, Israeli law was on his side to continue and complete his studies.

Could you imagine calling for a boycott of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Dubai or the Emirates from within any of those countries, let alone while studying at one of the universities located there? At best you'd be jailed for years, at worst, sentenced to death.

Uncharitable because, as a multi-millionaire, he lives the high life, either in his luxury apartment in Tel Aviv (Palestinians, meanwhile, are prevented from owning property in virtually all Muslim countries) or in his luxury apartment in Doha while Palestinians are forced to survive on less than $3,000 (except those who work for Israeli companies and enjoy wages at parity with Israeli workers - one of the underlying reasons the BDS are so keen to 'boycott' and thus render Israeli-employed Palestinians jobless when Israeli firms move on).

The one thing that sets the BDS movement apart from any other anti-social group in the world is that they hypocritically call for a boycott of Israeli goods and services while at the same time continuing to use Israel products themselves. They have Facebook pages; they use Apple products; they use Pentiums and Calerons; they use Twitter; they use the Windows operating system; they use smartphones to record their Jewhating rallies - in fact, they are so knee-deep in Israeli technology, that any sentient, normal-thinking person should be otherwise totally embarrassed to be associated with such a hypocritically hate-filled group.

The far more sinister side to the BDS is not just its association with the terrorist group Hamas (with it's published charter calling for the murder of Jews and the destruction of Israel), but the fact they are openly Jewhaters spreading Jewhate. They have - and continue to - demonstrate clearly on many occasions that they simply do not care about the Palestiniains thay the group was supposedly set up to help 'defend'. In total, the BDS have helped over 3,000 Palestinains in Israel lose their jobs over the past three years, 605 alone through forcing the relocation of SodaStream from the West Bank. Yet they defend their actions in closing (most companies they have forced to close have actually just relocated and as a result have ended up employing just Israeli citizens because of their new location) a mere handful of Israeli companies (with the loss of 3,000 Palestinian jobs) as "worth the course".

Yet they make no attempt to actually replace the incomes of those Palestinians they succeed in rendering jobless!

So who are the people who support BDS?

They fall into four broad categories:

1. The out and out Hamas-style Jewhaters who want to see Jews murdered and Israel disappear
2. The simpleton and often right-wing anti-Zionists, Nazis and white supremacists who use it as an excuse to pursue their Jewhating agenda
3. The naive people who are ostensibly good-hearted and misguidedly see Israel as the big brother and the Palestinians as the oppressed while failing to realise that it is in fact Hamas and the Palestinian Authority are the oppressors thought their usurping of world aid for their own end and have no intention of a peaceful settlement with Israel
4. The rich and famous, many of whom have what appears to be an anti-Semitic streak and who treat Israel as their pet hate (while, of course, ignoring other countries with problems that are far, far worse than ANY of the problems that may be in the Israel area), many of them potentially just to further advance their careers with exposure to a new audience of ignorant, young, right-wing, closet anti-Semites - Roger Waters, Brian Eno and Annie Lennox are just three celebrities who fall into this (and, it must be added, sharing some attributes of #1 above) category, while the likes of British politicians such as failed LibDem Bradford MP David Ward, ousted Baroness Jenny Tongue and Labour MP Grahame Morris consistently demonstrate an inexplicable hate for Israel and even for Jews themselves.

The one and most detestable and inexplicable thing BDS people all have in common is that they themselves continue to make full use of Israeli technology, innovation and medicine while openly calling on their supporters to boycott Israeli goods.

Perhaps given the outing of anti-Semites in the British Labour Party, it is time these detestable people were theselves boycotted by normal, reasonable citizens.

Who is the ignoramus who coined the term “Israel Apartheid”?

I’ve been trying to identify the actual ignoramus who invented the phrase “Israel Apartheid”, the one beloved by the Jew-haters who use this factually, morally, and historically inaccurate term that does nothing but attempt to delegitimise Israel and help foster anti-Semitism. Sadly, I had little success.

Needless to say, what I did discover, was that this phrase has its roots in the now totally unfit-for-purpose United Nations, filled, as it is, to capacity with overpaid buffoons where, through its own partisan anti-Israel resolutions which, by the UN’s own definition, is itself a haven of Apartheid against Jews.

While virtually all Arab countries, without exception, don’t themselves allow Palestinians any form of democracy or statehood, this is conveniently forgotten by the useless and bigoted mandarins of the United Nations. For example, the 300,000 Palestinians in Lebanon do not have citizenship, are not allowed own property and cannot enter many ‘desirable’ occupations (law, medicine, architecture, engineering). Yet during 2014 there were 20 UN resolutions against Israel (where 1.6million Israeli Arab citizens are protected by equal opportunity that is enshrined in Israeli Law and applies to each and every citizen) with the sum total of zero resolutions against Lebanon!

That, to me, indicates something at the UN is broken.

Arabs in Israel, like Jews, Christians, other believers and atheists/agnostics are allowed to freely do anything in Israel that is legal, decent and honest, without fear of prosecution. 

Meanwhile, in Saudi Arabia during 2014, remember, the year of 20 UN resolutions against Israel and zero against Saudi Arabia, they continued to try, convict, and imprison political dissidents and human rights activists solely on account of their peaceful activities. Systematic discrimination against women and religious minorities continues. Saudi Arabia does not permit public worship by religions other than Islam. Detainees, including children, commonly face systematic violations of due process and fair trial rights, including arbitrary arrest and torture and ill-treatment in detention. Saudi judges routinely sentence defendants to floggings of hundreds of lashes. Saudi Arabia’s discriminatory male guardianship system remains intact. Women are not allowed to visit a male doctor without their male guardians. Women are not allowed to drive and they do not have an equal right to divorce and often face discrimination in relation to child custody. There are male-only football matches. And non-Muslims have to seek out an alternative road route should their journey take them anywhere near Mecca.

Over 9 million migrant workers fill manual, clerical, and service jobs in Saudi Arabia, constituting more than half the workforce. Many suffer abuses and exploitation, sometimes amounting to conditions of forced labour.

Then in 2015, with no UN resolutions against them for their abuses of basic human rights, Saudi Arabia was appointed to head the UN Human Right Commission.

In other words, the Un lunatics allowed their fellow Saudi lunatics to run the UN asylum.

Even the most hardened or ignorant critic of Israel must be able to see something is amiss here. Otherwise their sheer stupidity surely outruns their already ingrained anti-Semitism.

Blame culture - never their own fault, ever. Always someone else's.

To make a mistake is human nature, to make the same mistake twice crosses the line between unfortunate and stupid and to make the same mistake three times is the stuff of HR departments.

Over the past months, we have witnessed a ridiculously high number of anti-Semitic incidents in UK Labour politics that have been outed, mainly because the internet has a far longer memory than it has ever had since Sir Tim Berners-Lee first unleashed it and Google and Facebook subsequently took it over! This has also occurred because while current UK Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn has stated he will not tolerate anti-Semitism - as well as other forms of racism – he has not only been spectacularly slow at actioning his promises, but keeps the company, or counts as his friends, some quite spectacular anti-Semites and Israel-demonisers such as Hamas, Hezbollah and the IRA/Sinn Fein.

In mid-2016, Luton's youngest councillor, 20-year-old Aysegul Gurbuz,was suspended from the Labour Party for some of her twitter posts, including that Hitler is the "greatest man in history" and "The Jews are so powerful in the US it's disgusting."

While the tweets were sent by her way back in 2011, Garbuz immediately attempted to at first blame her sister, before claiming "multiple people had access to my account and the tweets made do not reflect what I believe” before finally admitting “I take full responsibility for what was spoken in my name. I believe it is the right thing to acknowledge the pain I have caused and have resigned."

As if any teenager puts her phone down for even ten minutes!

Similarly, Naz Shah from Bradford, in 2014 and some nine months before she became an MP, tweeted that Israel should “relocate to the US” and posted an article that likened Zionism to al-Qaida. She went on to say that “Americans would welcome Israelis with open arms” and that the relocation would bring peace to the Middle East by ending “foreign interference”. Full-on blame culture with no mention about Muslim terrorist organisations in the middle east, continual broken Gazan ceasefires with Israel or the 11,000 rocket attacks into Israel from Gaza since Israel kept to its promise and moved out of Gaza in 2005 in exchange for peace - a peace Hamas have never provided. Naz also tried to blame her tweets on the “tensions in Gaza at the time”, despite her living in Bradford, some 2,300 miles away.

Plainly, if she cannot hold herself responsible and accountable for her own actions, she should not be in public life and a Member of the British Parliament.

To quote the Politics Today programme on BBC 2 on 27^th April 2016 (by the way, the BBC is certainly not a "Zionist-controlled mainstream media" either - if it was it wouldn't continually send the appallingly partisan and Palestinian-apologists Jeremy Bowen and Orla Guerin (both who have fallen victim, hook, line and sinker to Islamic blame culture) to the Middle East!

 . . . . . . . Andrew Neil (Daily Politics - 27 April 2016)

"What goes through somebody's mind that they post 'Let's not forget everything Hitler did was legal'? It's like something you'd expect from the Klu Klux Klan and when Eichmann suggested in the 40's that all Jews should be deported to Madagascar."

. . . . . . . Liam Fox (Daily Politics - 27 April 2016)

"It's not just about the posts but about whether you share the sentiments of the posts and whether you write them. There is something wrong with processes if the tweets were sent before she became an MP and then, how she was selected and elected with these (tweets) not picked up. How could she be allowed as a candidate to stand with these comments out there on social media? It's all about sympathising with the views and not the timing of when they were sent out."

Aside from the overt anti-Semitism exhibited, what is deeply worrying is the blame culture and inability to immediately accept responsibility for their own actions. This is very much a consequence of the thick dividing line between the Judeo-Christian west, with its ability to accept guilt, and the Islamic east, which has a very long tradition of blame culture against others for its ills. It's really just all about guilt and the apportioning of blame to assuage that guilt rather than be honest and accept it. It’s an ancient cultural carry-over that has only become more evident in British society over the past 20 - if that - years, as physical proof to the contrary now surfaces more readily and easily to override and correctly apportion the blame.

Here in the West, we have a tendency toward the acknowledgement of guilt, whether this is rightly or wrongly, meaning that as a result, the role of culprit is readily adopted. We promote self-criticism, and with this we similarly possess the capacity for self-correction. As the modern West has become more modern, the Christian notion of "original sin" has thus been secularised to quite an extent. Islam, however, does not allow for any notion of "original sin". Combined with equality and diversity and a fear of being accused of harbouring Islamophobic tendencies, this has expressed itself in a form of Western acceptance of blame for the Islamic-Arab world, when in reality they are very much wholly responsible for their own ills. Islam has absolutely no historical tradition, belief or customs relating to collective guilt. A practicing Muslim becomes certain of attaining his salvation just through the fulfilment of Allah's commandments. 

 

In the Middle and Far East it is a totally different story where one’s own guilt and insufficiencies are always apportioned to others. Self-criticism is rarely, if ever, practiced, so being able, or having the free will to self-correct, is consequently very restricted. They are very happy, and in fact almost always prefer to be seen as the victim, receiving great support from conspiracy theories that are so easily spread via electronic and social media in an attempt to justify that which is otherwise very anti-social behaviour. And sadly, that guilt is strictly a personal burden, and one that can be dispensed with by the ritual and very adherence to Allah's laws. But like anything that is from the hand of man, it can be slightly, somewhat or majorly abused. And there are none of the inconvenient moral dilemmas that are such a characteristic of both Christianity and Judaism. There is simply no collective guilt passed from one Muslim generation to the next.

Where the two cultures conflict and collide, the West can no longer function with a free hand very much because of its own self-imposed moral constraints. And it’s not a criticism, Islamophobia or otherwise to point out that Islam does not promote or allow for the formation of free will or any individual responsibility. In the Islamic concept of man, free will is totally subservient to Allah's all-encompassing pre-ordained plan. And we see this regularly manifest itself in some of the what we consider quite outlandish and often self-violent YouTube videos of practices so foreign to Westeners that we consider them to be almost unbelievable.

Our own self-imposed restrictions regarding blame and acceptance of responsibility are readily construed as a weakness by what has now become an aggressive blame society abroad. Our acceptance of blame and responsibility are subsequently not respected in situations of conflict, instead, being simply and crassly exploited. And with so many Muslim leaders now sitting in positions of responsibility on United Nations committees, this is one of the main reasons so many partisan and often straightforwardly anti-Semitic motions and resolutions are passed by that once-respected, but now totally farcical, body of people.

They have been taken in and connived by blame culture to the extent that it has become the easiest and most convenient option open to them. Despite huffing and puffing about equality, diversity and human rights, it has become easier for the UN to pander and accept the blame-culture of the 23% / 1.7billion of the world’s population that is Muslim and who occupy the world’s 50 Muslim-majority countries rather than the 0.2% / 14million free-thinking Jews, half of whom occupy one single sliver of land and who Muslims feel, as a result of their own cultural impression, they can continually blame and also generate and spread conspiracy theories about.

And despite the presence of a large Muslim population in Israel, the fact Israel is the nearest Western-style democracy, one that has been extremely successful and productive without oil reserves, and one that has to be on red alert 24/7 makes it possibly the easiest blame-culture target in the world for Muslims.

Muslims use conspiracies as self-reassuring clarifications for complete strokes of fate, which they feel are due to God's inexplicable wishes. It’s not a criticism, neither is it intended as a snide comment about, or a debasement of Islam, but If a Muslim is dealt a hand from his Allah that he can't influence, he doesn't take any responsibility or accountability for it. It is similar to Roman Catholicism where forgiveness is sought and accepted from the parish priest for sin, with many people claiming that as the very way members of the IRA cleared their consciences after having committed otherwise less-than-legal acts. It’s the often contentious way religion works, and while there are many adherents who will follow it honestly, there are those who will otherwise use it to their own nefarious advantage. That’s human nature!

So while we in the West organise all-day rock concerts to feed the starving millions in Africa because of our guilt for having enough food on our own tables, even though we have gone out and worked to earn the money to pay for that food, regardless of its obscene oil wealth, the Muslim in the Middle East (and further) will remain depicted as a victim.

We will feel sorry for ourselves for using legitimate force when required, while merely tut-tutting as Christians are wiped out by extreme Muslims. We will feel guilty about the third world, so pile on the cash donations, while the super-rich Arab states will continue to do nothing, instead, imbuing their blame culture in a totally different direction, blaming the USA and Israel for the lack of peace in the Middle East.

The Islamists will continue to detest Western democratic values of man-made origin that contradict their own Sharia which they claim descends from God. Yet if they are anyway politically mistreated in any country apart from that of their origin, they won't hesitate to denounce it, blame others and take to the street with their violent denunciations, threats and then subsequent hypocritical appeals to human rights. And countries and Gaza-apologists (remember, Gaza is ruled by a terrorist organisation whose 4 most senior activists [living in 5-star luxury in Doha of course, Gaza is not good enough for them] have amassed a $10billion+ fortune between them*, never having done a day's work in the past 10 years and just completely coincidentally since they took over in Gaza 10 years ago; also, as of May 2018, Mahmoud Abbas, is currently 14 years years into a 4-year term of office as President of the West Bank PA because he won;t allow elections and he is in the process of increasing his $500million fortune and $50million private jet) fall for it, hook, line and sinker.

And sadly, so many guilt-aware westerners are so easily taken in by this hypocrisy.
