Why is @ArwaM attempting to sanitize the true aims of BDS in the @guardian?

It's not a mere attempt to get "Israel to comply with international law" but a hate campaign designed to chip away at Israel's legitimacy. Image
As Omar Barghouti, co-founder of the BDS, says:

“Definitely most definitely we oppose a Jewish state in any part of Palestine.”

(Separately he clarifies that “Palestine” means all of Israel.)
Or as As’ad AbuKhalil, California State University Professor of Political Science, BDS leader and activist, made abundantly clear:

“The real aim of BDS is to bring down the State of Israel…this should be stated as an unambiguous goal.”
Want to learn more about the true goals of BDS, and whether it's protected by free speech?

"According to Al Jazeera."

Why do any mainstream media continue to rely on the Qatari mouthpiece, which has recently even fallen foul of the Palestinian Authority over its support for terrorists?


And it's an Israeli war against Hamas, not on Gaza. jpost.com/breaking-news/…Image
