Deadly Exchange
Anti-Israel extremists work hard to falsely blame Israel and Jewish groups for the horrific killing of George Floyd and other incidents of police brutality. Their lies and efforts to scapegoat don't just harm Jews. This campaign of hate distracts from real problems in society and makes it harder to solve them

Palestinian case against BDS
Opposing BDS doesn’t mean you oppose justice or Palestinian rights. It simply means that you believe Palestinians can be free without forcing the Jewish people to go back to being a stateless minority.

BDS Infringes Upon Academic Freedom
According to a statement signed by 38 Nobel laureates, BDS is “antithetical” to academic freedom and freedom of expression, and most likely a form of, “discrimination by virtue of national origin.”

Who funds BDS on campus?

Double standards
"Criticizing Israel is not antisemitic, and saying so is vile. But singling out Israel for opprobrium and international sanction -- out of all proportion to any other party in the Middle East -- is antisemitic, and not saying so is dishonest."

Speaking over Jews
"Because it cannot accept the simple historical truth that most Mizrahi and Sephardic Jews are and continue to identify as Zionist, JVP instead propagates a portrayal of Mizrahi and Sephardic Jews as pawns without any agency. We reject this revisionism, and call it out for the orientalism and racism that it is."

Jerusalem Declaration vs. IHRA
The Jerusalem Declaration is an attempted definition of antisemitism representing a small minority of Jews. It does more to give antisemitism a free pass than it does to actually fight all forms of this bigotry.
