Over the weekend, HBO host Bill Maher slammed the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement, commonly referred to as the BDS Movement. According to Maher, the BDS Movement is a "bulls**t" litmus test for Democrats. Specifically, he was referencing Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN), who have been very vocal about boycotting Israel. "BDS is a bulls**t purity test by people who want to appear woke and have actually slept through history class," Maher said, at which point the audience broke out into a thunderous applause. "It's predicated on this notion that is very shallow thinking, that the Jews are in Israel are mostly white and the Palestinians are browner so they [Palestinians] must be innocent and correct and the Jews must be wrong. As if occupation came out of the blue, that this completely peaceful people found themselves occupied. Forget about the infectadas and the suicide bombings and the rockets and how many wars?"

??? Wow, sometimes I wonder if someone else is occupying Maher’s body. He is spot on this time.

FWIW I have seen comments like this on TownHall.com from the usual lefties. Someone tried to say DNA shows Jews that came to Israel in the 20th Century are “European”. I’m not a scientist so correct me if I am wrong, but I don’t think there is such a thing as a “European” genetic marker, or even a “white” marker.
