Hamas ❤️ BDS



Hamas issued a statement on Tuesday that was completely in line with BDS - and then it went ahead and praised the BDS movement itself.

Hamas stated that "normalization"with Israel is an "unforgivable crime" and that "the Palestinian people will not forgive anyone who deals with Israel."

The terror group said that it is following the Arab nations who are warming up to Israel, complaining that it "strengthens the occupation and covers its ongoing crimes against the Palestinian people."

"There is a great and new effort of normalization in which the scandal of the practice of normalization does not embarrass the media, in an attempt to penetrate into the awareness of generations to entrench acceptance of the occupation as a fact that can not be overcome."

This is exactly the BDS philosophy. If Israel is accepted as a fact, then BDS loses. Its purpose is to make the world think that Israel will fall, that it is a temporary blip and it makes no sense to work with it because its disappearance is inevitable. This was the way the Arab world looked at Israel as well until the past decade or so.

Ordinary Palestinians, however, may accept Israel's existence, but poll after poll shows that the ones who support a two state solution only want peace as a tactic towards the eventual destruction of Israel. BDS and Hamas are a little more honest.

In its statement, Hamas praised the role of the BDS movement, "whose goals and strategies have been widely supported worldwide in the face of injustice and the siege of the occupation of the Palestinian people."

You will be hard pressed to find a BDS supporter who does not support Hamas' goals. It would be interesting to ask them if they will distance themselves from a group that openly espouses murdering Jews, just to see them hem and haw and try not to say something that would get them in trouble with either the terrorist supporters or the  deluded peaceniks who they try to attract.
