BDS
Despite its military, diplomatic, and economic power, Israel's regime of military occupation, settler colonialism, and apartheid still views the nonviolent, Palestinian-led global Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement as a "strategic threat" to its system of injustice, waging a protracted war against the movement accordingly. This essay aims to contextualize Israel's war on BDS by examining the movement's origins, principles, impact, and …

Le boycott est l’arme des pauvres contre les puissants, des opprimés contre la domination. Le mouvement BDS (boycott, désinvestissement, sanctions) est issu d’organisations populaires palestiniennes en lutte contre l’occupation militaire de la Palestine et l’apartheid en Israël.…

Accepting colonists as equal citizens and full partners in building a…
