Als deze anti-Israël boycot wet wordt aangenomen, is dat één van de laatste stappen in de hervorming van de VS tot een regelrechte politiestaat. De Washington Post heeft hier een een dik artikel aan gewijd en stelt dat e.e.a. niets met de vrijheid van meningsuiting te maken heeft, dit daar het bedrijven betreft.... Voorts wijst de WaPo op een eerdere antiboycot wet uit ik dacht 1977, waarmee arabische bedrijven worden aangepakt, mochten ze Israël boycotten, zelfs als zo'n bedrijf daartoe door haar overheid wordt gedwongen........
Echter met deze wet, kan ook de individuele activist vervolgd worden, of zelfs iemand die zich negatief uitlaat over Israël , n.a.v. een gelezen artikel, of het zien van een documentaire, ook al wordt daarin de waarheid getoond......... De vreselijke waarheid over het lot van de Palestijnen, die in feite het leven onmogelijk wordt gemaakt door apartheidsstaat Israël, althans als ze niet tot de tienduizenden dodelijke slachtoffers behoren, die deze staat sinds haar oprichting onder de Palestijnse burgers heeft gemaakt........
De volgende petitie, die wij helaas niet kunnen tekenen, kwam ik gisteren tegen op de US Campaign for Palestinian Rights, lees en huiver:
This
picture is worth a thousand shares
On
March 23, Sens. Ben Cardin (D-MD) and Rob Portman (R-OH), and Reps.
Peter Roskam (R-IL) and Juan Vargas (D-CA), introduced the Israel
Anti-Boycott Act (S.720
and H.R.1697).
This
bill seeks to impose fines and criminal
penalties,
and deny government loans to corporations refusing to do business
with corporations in illegal Israeli settlements. It infringes
on our First Amendment right to
promote boycott, divestment and sanctions and seeks to legitimize
Israel’s settlements.
When
politicians refuse to tell the truth on Palestinian rights, it’s up
to us to speak up. We’re doing just that on the Israel Anti-Boycott
Act with a new
infographics series that
explain how this bill could affect you.
The sponsors of the Israel Anti-Boycott Act, a legislative attempt to criminalize boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) activism, responded to an avalanche of criticism by claiming that the bill wouldn’t impact everyday activists.
But in reality, this draconian anti-free speech bill could have severe consequences for you if you are active, or even just vocal, in the movement for Palestinian rights. How? That's what we explain in a series of four infographics using the examples of a social media user, student group, church congregation, and private investor.
These infographics show you the possible consequences of the Israel Anti-Boycott Act becoming law, and make the need to act now crystal clear. Please spread them far and wide by sharing on social media.

If the Israel Anti-Boycott Act becomes law, it could have severe consequences for anyone active – or even vocal – in the movement for Palestinian rights.

The Israel Anti-Boycott Act could have far reaching consequences for individuals and groups active, or even just vocal, in the movement for Palestinian rights.
One example is a social media user who expresses intent to boycott companies named in the forthcoming UN Human Rights Council's (UNHRC) database of settlement corporations.
