The Israeli government and private groups are watching closely the activities of an anti-Israel American group that supports the BDS (Boycott, Divest, Sanction) movement against Israel. The Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP), a San Francisco-based organization, has been operating since 1996 and has conducted numerous anti-Israel activities, especially on college campuses.
JVP claims not to be anti-Israel, but many officials in the Jewish community said that, based on its agenda, there was no way JVP could claim to be pro-Israel, but was actually the opposite.
The NGO Monitor group accused JVP of seeking to sow dissent among American Jewish campus groups by holding provocative campus events that have caused numerous splits in Jewish organizations on campus. Among its supporters are well-known anti-Israel activists, including linguist Noam Chomsky, Broadway playwright Tony Kushner, and actor Wallace Shawn.

I’ve been considering taking some retirement funds and going specific on Israeli investments.
Maybe it would be a good idea to track what places this group of yahoos is boycotting, in order to buy.
The worst Nazis are the ones born with Jewish names,
just as the worst anti-Catholics are those who were born in the Church.
I guess it has to do with some sort of alienation or rejection or ?
I’ve been trying to understand this for years. ....?

That goes double for the Jewish left wing.
They send the kids to camp Grünwald(*).
(*)Named after the summer camp of the Hitler Jugend.
How appropriate that they are based in San Fran Sicko. I’d bet that half of them aren’t even halachic Jews, and that all they know about Yiddishkeit is bagels and cream cheese. Meanwhile, they are certainly not garnering any brownie points with Hashem, and Elul approaches.
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
